I think it was a little slow in the beginning, but the last third I read non-stop until I finished. I remembered very little of it, I actually don't even remember re-reading it in 2018, and I was so confused lmao, for example I thought the Aroughs' siege was in Brisingr and it actually happens in this one.
I think it was a solid ending, even tho it broke my heart. I do have a couple of complaints, but some of them you can kind of explain I guess.
Also, forever being depressed about Eragon and Murtagh,

I'm glad Eragon got his head out of his ass, but Murtagh still deserves an actual apology
