This is a worthy conclusion to an absolutely incredible story, and it has firmly taken up residence in my heart. I had to pause often because things were getting so intense. I will say it was just as emotional as I expected it to be. So I'm not going to say anything about the plot. I think if you've come this far, you've earned it.

I went into this knowing nothing but the same cliffhanger we all got with Graevale, and I want that experience to be the same for everyone else who reads this book. To be honest, I'm not sure I'm going to write a review for this one. I mean, other than, like, a billion re-reads. I don't know what comes next in my life, now?
