Oh my I didn't think I'd make it! The first half was such a drag. I can see why it was important to introduce a new character in the second last book but doesn't mean I had to enjoy it. I couldn't wait to get back to POVs of characters I've come to love. There was no progress on the war front for like 90% of the book. The story did reel me in during the second half but too little, too late. I want to see how this ends but this series could have been awesome. It's a pity it stayed at mediocre.
