The atmosphere in this book, for me, is very different from its preceding two books. I made a lot of adjusting. Here's why: I think it's just me but there's a sense of unfamiliarity because this is more of a quiet and solemn type, so unlike the actions and upturns of the other two that had me bite my nails from tingling anticipation every time I finished a chapter. The darkest out of the series. The said difference sent a jolt of unease that made me uncomfortable at first but I managed to attune to the flow of the book gradually. Don't get me wrong, this book still is just as good, gripped me from start to finish, no matter that it had torn my heart from the loss of certain significant characters. (view spoiler)[(1) Enzo, whom I once have mourned, I did so again because I just think he doesn't deserve everything that has happened to him; (2) Teren, the complex one, whom I've been struggling to understand, to hate or to like but I ended up liking him anyway; (3) and of course Adelina, the ultimate antihero that is truly the star of the book. I personally did not like her decision and how it turned out but I understand it. That it must happen and so I accepted it. (hide spoiler)] The last few parts though, struck me hard. Because it's bittersweet yet so wonderful. 
 My constant theme songs for the entire series: 
 Into Darkness - Thomas Bergersen 
 Gravity of Love - Enigma
