Meh. Terrible finale. The pacing of this series was very odd and the endings are incredibly dissatisfying. Cheap storytelling and ultra-convenient plot lines. Poor romance writing. No chemistry and often very underdeveloped. As a queer person, I generally adore and appreciate queer rep, but the case in this book did a serious disservice to proper rep. It was underdeveloped, rushed, and awkward. Poor conflict development. No payoff. Poor action writhing. Poor characterization at times. My favorite scene in the entire series is when Mirabella comes after Arsinoe in the second book. The tension is phenomenal and it’s so memorable.
