Been waiting forever and a day for this and it didn't disappoint. It's a meaty novel taking is through Crisanta's final year at school and all the adventures her and her friends have. There are a lot of long speeches which are fun but well....a bit long in places but since that's Crisanta's whole *thing* it wasn't terrible but lol at 11pm I was like Imm skip through this one. I think it's an excellent conclusion to a great series which has gotten me though some really tough times in my life. There's a sequence at the end which is definitely cinema worthy and I re-read that a couple of times because it was written so well. One aspect of these books I love is how the romance is played down, it's there and the characters are teenagers but it's not a hormone fest (which are fun) and the focus is on the action.
Loved it!

Amazing finale!!! Some of the side quests do get cumbersome to read and you want to get to the ending because it is so anticipated but at the same time, you're so glad for the whole book. Been a part of this series since book 4 came out and I have eagerly waited for each and every one of them. Crisanta has a perfect character arc and there's no 'all is good' because the book acknowledges that good cannot exist without evil. All in all, I need an epilogue. I'm obsessed.
It is with a heavy, yet giddy and extremely nerdy heart that I have finished Eternity's End. While a book of this size normally wouldn't take me almost a month to complete. There was NO WAY I was rushing this masterpiece. I wanted to savor every word, every adventure, and every single emotion (of which there are many).
I have to say, after reading Eternity's End I am feeling all sorts of ways about the author 😂 She tore my heart to pieces so many times, just to build it back up, to utterly shatter it again. I absolutely LOVED every second of it. Every soul-wrenching, hitch crying, snot blowing, tears flowing moment (both happy and sad) was WORTH the journey.
I hate that this series is over at the same time I am happy of the ending my fairytale besties got. This has been such an incredible series which has touched my heart and lifted my soul. I can't wait to dive back in and start it all over again.
If you want an awesome YA series, with fairy tale EVERYTHING and then some...strong characters, life lessons and just all around good vs. evil fun...GRAB this series.
Wonderful prologue to catch you up at the start. And then, as usual it is really easy to fall back into Book and Crisanta's life. I was quite intimidated by the almost 1000 page book but the last 300 pages went by in a blur. I couldn't wait to find out what would happen. I can't believe I am now at the end of the series. Part of me thought that maybe life in Book could just go on indefinitely. It was quite a journey and it did have a satisfying ending but I am still sad there are no more adventures in the magical land of Book.
