This book was a struggle for me to get through. I believe it wouldβve been better for this book to have split into two books, as I found it to be slow moving and very long.
I already knew quite a lot of what was going to happen in this book, so to be honest I was dreading the read. I was originally going to read it as a kindle book but switched to audio as I couldnβt get into the story.
I enjoyed the multiple POVβs that was shown throughout the book, but there were times I was confused on whose POV I was reading next. I enjoyed the different POVβs in situations such as, when it involves the war, personal things and relationships.
As this was a very long book I was slowly losing my interest as I felt it was just dragging on. However, even though it dragged on I loved seeing the character developments as they battle problems physically and mentally.
I believe this book was about coming together as one big family and fighting for what they love most. Whether itβs people, a kingdom or their future. This is especially shown in the eyes of Evangeline, even though she is such a cutie they looked to her as their future and why they were fighting so hard for it.
I did enjoy how there was different locations that the characters visited to fight the Valg and protect what was theirs. But also inspiring more and more people to help them fight in the war for a better world.
I would have liked to have had an epilogue to see where all the characters were in a few years time from the events, but did like how Sarah finished the book by bringing it full circle to the people who first started this series x
