I wanted...more from this?

I feel like it suffered a little bit from middle book syndrome, because I felt like there wasn't a good purpose? I can tell we're gearing up for something and I enjoyed the smaller "side-quest" type plotlines that happened in this book, but ultimately there wasn't much of a climax because White was so committed to the cliffhanger. I struggled a little bit to pull myself back from skimming and while I am also enjoying the ongoing mystery surrounding Guinevere's identity and past, I also wanted more revelation about that in this book.

Overall, quite a bit of filler in this book that I wish had been used more judiciously for character development or introducing new conflict, but still a decent entry in the series. I excitedly await the next installment.
