Fables: The Deluxe Edition, Book Fifteen by Bill Willingham, Lilah Sturges
5.0
Review to come once it has sunken in. Right now, I just can't believe it's done.

I know some people were disappointed in how this series ended, but for me, it made sense. That final realization of Rose Red's felt like something I as a reader should've realized along the way, but never connected, and that is the kind of thing I love. Maybe anti-climactic for some, but I feel like it's going to be one of those things that each re-read of the series gives more and more hints towards.
Anyway, really, really sad to finally be done with this series. I started reading it because of the Telltale video game, and I'm so incredibly glad that I did and that they made that game. I'm so incredibly attached to this world and these characters now that I genuinely cried at some of the final panels, especially the bottom of Ambrose's final page. What a ride it was; I hope the rumors of a new spin-off or whatever it's going to be is true!
