I won't be continuing this series. I don't like the writing style and nothing big ever happens. I also have no fucking clue what's so great about the love interest. He's just a man. I don't understand why the MC is so in love with him. I feel like they just met and now they say they're in love.
Thee endings always get me. Even this one had such an interesting ending that I kinda want to read the next one but I feel like it'll be boring until the very ending and this series has almost 20 books so I'm giving up early.

I cried so much. The last 150 pages were me crying in a fetal position and now I need a painkiller for the headache and a cold facemask to bring down the puffiness. Also, chocolate and coffee.

I'm so glad this series is finally finished. The previous two books were so slow and kept dragging and made me so frustrated. But this finale was amazing.

I had heard so many conflicting things about this and had been very on/off about if I should read it but thankfully this was NOT a high school bully smut like I thought. There just was some flashbacks to high school and the FMC used to be a queen bee and a bitch. So that might explain those rumours. But this turned out to be exactly what I hoped for.

this is probably way more interesting for those who actually read the series this belongs to. i thought maybe it would be spicy (and it is) but the scenes were pretty brief and 80 pages isn't enough to form a connection to any of the characters so it was just kinda lackluster.

There is no way in hell this book needed to be this long. And why the fuck is this the NINTH book of this universe I've read??? I am so fucking glad this spin-off series is finally over. The fucking prophecy just keeps getting weirder and longer and there's new characters and creatures all the time and I lost track of the world-building way too many books ago.
