I know it's weird to give it three stars when the rest of the series had 4 stars. I felt like this book dragged on more than it needed too, and even though we got a lot of answers some things felt sort of rushed. I liked the characters more than the story and that says a lot! If this was just a book about Zuze and Mik or Liraz and Ziri I'd be over the moon. I guess I just got tired of all the flowery words between Karou and Akiva, and I wanted them to either be together or stop looking at each other and MAN did they look at each other. I felt like they spent more time looking at each other than actually trying to BE with each other. I also liked the parts of the past. I think that part of the plot was great and amazing. I think Karou and Akiva actually annoyed me the most and they are all of the story so that's a pretty big part of the rating. It was a great way to end a story if only I wished it was either a bit longer or a part was cut out because I was left waiting. All and all I'm glad the series is over one way or another. I'm glad for the ride and I'm glad for the feels.
