The ending of this was so good, the epilogue was perfect and it surprised me so much. But the most of the book was a bit too boring and slow. There were too many slower plot points happening and none of them were super exciting. And then a lot also happened off page with certain characters which would be frustrating, especially when we did not get much explanation as to how those characters had gotten to a certain point. It seemed that this should have been split up into 4 books in order to have the most impact and in order for it to feel more fleshed out. It was overall a good ending and it was satisfying but I wanted a bit more from it overall. I still would recommend this series as it was so interesting and the ending was so good but I would caution that it has a lot of slow moments.
