This book was devastatingly heartbreaking, stressful, tense and then wholesome at the end. A great read but please check the trigger warnings before reading

This book was sooooo disappointing and boring. As someone else said this was like a meeting that could've been an email

5 ⭐️s for Nyktos

1.5 / 5 ⭐️

Damn, I LOVE this series. These two are my most favorite main characters. I love everything about them. This book was amazing just like the others. Not to mention, I was a crying mess near the end. There BETTER be another book for this series unless Armentrout is putting the rest of their story, in the next Blood & Ash book. I hate waiting for the next book.

Yikes. Why didn’t the editors reign JLA in with this? 90% of this book was the same repetitive mfc’s inner thoughts over and over again. I had to put it on 2.0 on audible in order to get through this. I’m extremely disappointed. I’m not sure I will read the last book in this series. I’ve loved her other books so I don’t know what happened.

I love this series but this whole book felt like it was full of filler.

Mi dispiace veramente dare solo 2 stelle, ma il primo 65% del libro è davvero noioso. Il restante 35 è migliore, ma non così tanto da "elevare" la mia valutazione.

I was looking forward to this book so much. I loved Ash and Seras' story so much more than Cas and Poppy, and the pacing of the books was great compared to FBAA. Unfortunately, JLA didn't keep to that pacing. The first 4 chapters are really exciting and pick up right where the last book left off. From there up to 65% is so boring. It's literally War of Two Queens over again, but with Ash being in captivity and sera also being caged by Kolis. Sera is ALL in her head, and it's not a pleasant read. I was bored and seriously considered DNFing several times. It's also full of information we know from FBAA, but there are a few new things that we learn. I completely understand that there are things that we know from FBAA that Sera didn't know and needed to learn, I get that, but I felt it was dragged out and extremely repetitive. 65%-90% is a little more exciting, but there are peaks and lulls in it, rather than it being all excitment after most of the book is boring. 90%-100% is all sex with a little info thrown in.
I hate that JLA decided to split Ash and Sera's last book into two. I don't for a second believe that she couldn't fit everything into one book, considering 55% of this book was filler. It's just a money grab on JLAs part stretching it into two books.
Shame she's ruining this series too. Fingers crossed she proves me wrong and the last one is more like the others.
