The most-liked reviews on Hardcover (credited to their authors).
“What an amazing conclusion. The only thing I could think when I finished this book was... But I want more! The characters, the writing, the world, everything about this book hit the mark for me.”
“Whew, what an exhausting (in a great way) read! I want more in Taylor's universe, but I loved that this was a two-book installment of this world. Solid epilogue that didn't feel too absurd, and very interesting backstory that was an addition to this book.”
