my second run through the series in preparation for the final book and this part still felt underwhelming and incomplete. I understood better this time that the book is focused, centered, and plotted around yerrin than Lindon, specifically overcoming her blood shadow… not that that’s a done deal. anyways, it’s still good but it’s tough if I try to judge this book by itself. I thought I might hate books one and two more the second time, but I think I liked em even more knowing all that I do, but yeah .. this one. oh well, I remember ghostwater being possibly my favorite, so I’m excited for that one now.
