Sisters' Fate by Jessica Spotswood
3.0
Maura did terrible things. She was just forgiven. I don't like this whole "if you die you're just forgiven" trope I've been seeing a lot lately. It's an easy way to deal with a character who makes mistakes and I do not like this. I loved the second book, a lot more than I did the first but this ending felt a bit disappointing to me.
I feel like if Maura had lived and Tess or Cate had died instead, it would have been a lot more interesting to see her deal with the guilt. Tess's guilt is there too, but just... I know she's dead but I still feel Maura got off way to easy.
Finn was really annoying in this book. That whole story line was boring and just added a lot of unnecessary angst and romantic bullshit into the story. I couldn't stand Cate's constant thoughts about Finn when there's literally so many other things going on.
There were soooooo many new characters I couldn't keep track of! The only ones I vaguely remember are Parvati and Prudence, but I'm pretty sure there were at least 20 others. Insignificant, yes, but I felt too many new names were introduced.
Overall , a disappointing conclusion. I expected a bit less predictability and a bit more of the awesome witchery I saw in book 2.
