what a way to end a trilogy. and it still left me on a cliffhanger, despite things being wrapped up??
the first 50% seemed pretty predictable to me and i was ready to give up. i figured it all out and it was nothing special compared to the other two. but the last 40% hooked me? there were just so many twists it's insane. i am still reeling what in the entire universe i read.
also pip's character growth! she's no longer the little innocent and perfect girl and how all the events that happened have taken a toll on her mental health because that seems pretty realistic to me. it was amazing to see a character struggle, face dark moments, etc.
oh!! and the books are getting a tv adaptation!! talk about hype, i hope the show does it justice
team ravi and pip forever <33
