I still enjoyed this book. I found it to be a really enjoyable read, but I really thought I would love it... but I just liked it.

I really didn't love it, and I thought I would and I was so excited about it so it was a bit of a letdown. The main things that I took issue with was I found it to be relatively slow-paced particularly towards the beginning.

I'd heard some fantastic things about the book so I went in with really high expectations. And I was left actually really disappointed. I gave it 3 stars, but I'm wondering if that was a little bit lenient now

This book as a sequel, but also an ending to a series because it is duology, just fell really flat for me. I think because of the way that things ended in The Wrath and the Dawn, I was expecting a lot more action in this one but it was just really slow-paced.

I just found that the pacing was a little too fast - we didn't have enough time to savour some of the action and because of that we don't have a lot of time to see this female/female romance develop. So overall I did find myself disappointed just because I was so excited about the book.
