such a perfect conclusion to the trilogy - authors, take notes!!!! i know a lot of people say the ending is underwhelming, and yes it's a little mundane, but it fits with what mal and alina have wanted all along - a normal, simple life. my jaw was on the floor for the better part of the book and my heart was torn to pieces (the darkling's story??? are u kidding??), and i LOVED IT. six of crows i'm coming for u!!!!
