Wow so many things I forgot about this book like Finnick’s backstory 😭
Really enjoyed this one, Katniss is such an unreliable narrator and never knows what’s going on bruh. Thought the ending was perfect conclusion for the series.
Almost 4.5 ⭐️ but not quite, I liked the second book best!
I’m excited to finally get onto the prequels!

I very much enjoyed this one!
Yumi and Painter are very fun and relatable characters. I really enjoyed learning about them and seeing them interact in this book. The world building was really great and I loved learning about both of their respective homes, environments and experiences. I particularly enjoyed Kilahito as it was cool to see such a developed, almost modern, society in such a strange world.
The various twists and turns and cosmere lore was also really great. The inclusion of Design and Hoid added great humour but also an organic way to learn about what was going on in the magic system of the world.
Overall really enjoyed it

I really enjoyed this book.
My favourite parts were the relationships between the central characters and seeing them get through university together - even though many of these scenes are mundane, they feel very cosy and I love the vibe of it. I really enjoyed the idea of the magic system and how it felt quite well researched (at least from my perspective as a monolingual English speaker) and intriguing. My only criticisms are that there were a couple times i felt details got skipped over and that there were a few things that didn’t quite feel resolved, especially between characters near the end - but perhaps that’s the point of it. Overall very fun read!

Really enjoyed this book - I loved the characters, the plot twists, and world building. It took a while to fully get into - at the start I wasn’t highly invested in Vivenna’s pov, but once things got moving I felt that every storyline was equally engaging and complemented each other well. Very happy overall, 5 stars
