5.0

An epic finale to one of my favorite series.
Did I cry? Yes. Through pretty much the entire thing? Yes. Is almost every page tabbed for one reason or another? Absolutely.
Hugged this book for a while after finishing it. It was fantastic.

Such a beautiful story of hope, second chances, true love, healing, and redemption. Everything I love in a fairytale and more!

dark

1.5

I was going to give this book 2 stars, because it was overly frilly, and I only liked one character, and felt like it had no plot. But then the nonsensical epilogue happened. 

Tell me how a curse can have eyes and ears, enough sentience to understand human language and ability to follow and watch characters, but it doesn’t have lungs to be able to take a breath. Because THAT is where we need to suspend belief, here. Just… what?
