This book does a good job of answering questions & fleshing out the world of the previous books without necessarily pulling the rug out from underneath the mystery of it all. I didn’t find it quite as engaging as the previous two instalments, but the shifting perspectives & the choice to focus in more on the characters’ personal lives made it emotional in a way I really enjoyed. Bonus points for Whitby and his mouse.
