what an ending. i am so confused? half of me is like “ugh, boring and predictable!” (*) and the other half is like “PLEASE GIVE ME THE NEXT BOOK NOW.”
since the first book, i have my personal feuds with the author and some characters, however i continued to read because of the plot. and the dragons.
at this point, i cried more because of the dragons than the rest of the plot.
nonetheless, i felt like this book was a lot more informative and deep, and i did enjoy the moments of tension. i don’t know if it happens to others as well, but either books are super cliché or i tend to guess correctly what is going to happen, so every little plot twist was not that surprising to me. it was super entertaining though, and i can’t pretend to give lower than 4 stars to something that i enjoyed. doesn’t have to mean it’s peak literature, i am a simple girl who loves fun!

(*) LIES. i did not predict that ending, although it was cliché imo, but OH MY GOD ????? what’s up with these authors and dropping massive bombs on us?
