I think the Prue deserved a better ending.

This book did a great job if tying in the loose ends of the series. I really enjoyed escaping into these books. The best word that comes to mind is "gentle" when describing them. They move at a somewhat slow, but lolling and rocking pace. Don't be in a rush to get through them. Just enjoy being in Wildwood.

Not as great as the first two, but still a wonderful world to read about.

I think there might actually be an interesting book here, but I really really dislike the way it's narrated. Weird parts of sentences are emphasized, pauses occur where I'm sure they can't be in the actual text. Everyone sounds whiny and weird. I can't do it.

At some point I'll have to look for the ebook and try it that way.

Wow, this took me a really long time to read. I didn't get that "I can't wait to read the next chapter" feeling. Really just read it because I felt obligated to finish the series. I thought that this book was very "meh".

I thought this was the strongest book of the trilogy. I really enjoyed Meloy's writing style and I think he came into his own with plotting in this work. I'll definitely recommend this series to young people when they outgrow the Series of Unfortunate Events - and of course anyone from Portland.

I enjoyed visiting Wildwood again! Meloy creates a fun world. I loved the first book in the series, but the second and third weren’t the best in my opinion. This final installment in particular felt all over the place. There were many different perspectives and many different side stories. It felt like too much was going on. Meloy is able to pull it all together at the end, but it’s pretty hasty. Im glad I finished the series!
