adventurous challenging emotional sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? N/A
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

This is not my first attempt at reading this series. The third book was a strong departure from the first two and I found it difficult to stay engaged. It was until the end of the third book or perhaps the fourth book that I finally got deeply invested. 

I strongly recommend a tandem read of books five and six! Google a guide—there are plenty out there.  

I truly feel like I went on such a journey reading these books. I think maybe they didn’t have to be as long as they are, but it was also a marvellous escape. I would read spin offs.
