I may get hate but this was not my favorite. I felt this book didn't even pick up any type of pacing I loved until between 300-350 pages! That's way too long to get some more action going besides reminding us of how much Violet and Xadan burn for each other or hardly touch each other and moving place to place to try and find Andarna's kind which doesn't really become too successful. 

I was confused and bored for most of it.. waiting for something just HUGE to happen with a certain character. When that character's HUGE something comes... The book is almost done.  

I was glad we got to find out Violet's second signet but also I can't fathom how it might be purposeful.... Hopefully that gets more exploration and explanation. 

I did like to get a few different POVs in the book but then again... Mostly near the back. I just felt this book 3 has the usual book problems.... Just not as good as the beginning book.
