So, I originally started reading this back in September, then I broke my shoulder, and I couldn't read physical books! I picked it up again in December but wasn't quite vibing with it and put it down to read some Christmas books, and I finally picked it back up and finished this last week! 
I can't help feeling I would have enjoyed it a lot more if  I hadn't had to stop and start it a few times! Overall, it was a great conclusion to the series, though at times, it was slightly predictable! I loved seeing all my favourite characters all coming together and will definitely be reading the series at some point!

I enjoyed this and liked the story it kept me guessing what was happening the whole way through! I really liked Cassian and Kellan, and the Shadow was the perfect Villian, though I must admit Vaida was my favourite. I'm a sucker for a sassy analyst! And after that ending/epilogue, I'll definitely be keeping my eye out for book 2! 
I also love how the author included a guide of characters, places, and the politics of the world as well as a pronunciation guide it was super useful to have to flick back to when needed!

So this was a great book to start off the year! I really liked Evelyn and Adrian, aka the Princess and the Conductor! I enjoyed the story and there romance if anything, I wish this was longer than a novella so that the tension should have build between them a bit more and you got to know them a bit better although this is a fab quick read with a happy ending that's definitely worth checking out 😊
