The ending felt rushed and very anticlimactic, especially with all the hype around what would happen to Dacre considering how evil he was painted to be—his death was disappointing and so was Enva's role. I wish more time had been spent on fleshing out the relationships between Tobias x Attie and Forest x Sarah. Felt like we barely got to connect with them, so Forest x Sarah's death at the very end didn't feel as impactful as it could have been.
