Great ending to a fantastic series. 

The middle meandered for me a little bit, but I understand why it went the way it did. I think being in one location the first two books allowed for a ton of atmosphere and little details that I absolutely ate up… where as El is constantly bopping around the world in this last book and I was getting jet lag lol. 

Overall not as riveting for me as the second book (5⭐️) but still a very enjoyable read. The audiobook narrator is absolutely fantastic and I feel like she totally nailed El’s personality. Would totally recommend this series for lover’s of dark academia and magic.
