Omg I’m so happy these two ended up together I was so rooting for them 🥹

NOOOO ARE THEY DEAD?? I KMOW THEY SUCK BUT I DONT WANT THEM TO DIE

As many issues as I have with this book I’m really curious how things are gonna resolve with [redacted]. Should you put faith in a bad person if they truly have a vision for a better world and the will and power to make it happen? Would it be worth [redacted]? Will all their plans crumble because it wasn’t built on a foundation of caring about people? It’s so interesting seeing all the good guys follow them…

I really don’t understand why we’re focused so much on going to the underworld here, like what does the underworld have to do with the story? And also why are we introducing so much worldbuilding in the last book, the second book was so short and had so little world building, if they wanted to add like ten new species why didn’t they add them in the second instead of bogging down the finale with all this lore

wtf is even going on in this book

Seriously…. Not enough Lyra. Or enough Will. Like I love all the adult characters in this book but they’re just nowhere near as fun to follow as the kids. Finding this one harder to get into than the last two :/

0/10 not enough Lyra
