Bound Paths is book 3 of the Compass Points trilogy, and in my opinion, best book of the series! I loved the two timelines that helped explain some very important information, the continued growth of the characters, the overall plot, and the resolution. Everything felt like it fit into place and left me very satisfied with how the trilogy concluded. I also loved the teaser that we haven't seen the end of the Compass Points world.
I did feel like some dialogue and some scene explanation was reiterated a few times that felt a bit redundant, but that didn't really take away from the overall story for me. I thought the concept of exploring the afterlife and what is beyond the veil was really cool and well done. I also liked that each time Rose and Carter went beyond the veil, they had different experiences, getting closer to their goal each time. And there was something at the end I honestly didn't see coming, which I always enjoy in a story.
I would highly recommend this series to anyone who enjoys fantasy/romantasy, fae, and elemental magic.
