I was 3/4 through the book when I realized the book’s ending wasn’t going to be fulfilling. I mean it’s how we all knew it was gonna end but the big end battle was barely a chapter and was just a huge let down. Also the group all go through the change and get their full vamp tattoos and we don’t get any description of them? Just oh they changed book over? Mostly get like the writers either had no idea how to end it or just had no motivation to finish it well. The adding of the new character Lynette seemed pointless and just to extend the last book. Just disappointing overall besides tying up an otherwise good series

Good ending to the series! I continued reading from where I left off in the series years ago, and it definitely felt good to get back in touch with my younger self. It was an enjoyable book and series overall!

2.5

quite glad to see this series end.
the ending was very disappointing.

I really enjoyed the plot of the book but the writing style irritates me

li somente por ter lido os outros ONZE da saga e queria terminar pois me incomodava não ter lido o último mesmo sendo ruim desde o livro 3 ou 4, por aí
descobri no booktube que as autoras lançaram outra saga com os mesmos personagens aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

THANK GOD IT IS OVER. At first, I started reading this to laugh at how terribly it was written. However, a few books in, it was no longer funny and was just a burden to get through. The racist, homophobic, and other negative themes throughout the book just continue to get worse as the series goes on. I don't know how anyone could actually like this series and the writing. If anyone wants an excellent review of how awful this series is, I highly recommend going to this youtube review and prepare to agree/laugh with everything he says - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-SDUIK1__24

IT'S FINALLY OVER. I'M FINALLY FREE.

Decent end to the full series but left some things to be desired.

*Spoilers*

The final book in the House of Night series delivers some terrifying moments and actions by Neferet; she's unrepentant in her evil and deliciously so. But this fails to deliver in the final "battle" scene which wraps up far too quickly after the entire book builds to that point and after so many deaths and after so much discussion about how to find Neferet's "achille's heel" or the one bit of love that can be used to turn her from darkness but instead they just kinda cram her into a grotto and Aurox seals her in. There's quite a bit of death and even a bit of gore but the final show-down was a let-down.

Overall it was a mostly-satisfying conclusion to many of the plot threads except that, again, Neferet's end was really a rather short and lack-luster scene that really needed something more. It was an entire series that built to this moment and it lasted about 2 pages and was over so quickly that I felt cheated; especially with no final thoughts or words from this quintessential evil character so that was a disappointment.

Kalona's redemption ended up being much of the main thrust of the book this time and after so many books the "oomph" of his return to Nyx wasn't as powerful for me as it could have been earlier.

The full series was a LOT going on in a VERY short time. There are some amazing and complex characters (Stevie Rae, Aphrodite, Stark) and others who are clearly not very well developed over the books. Some of the stories were really engaging, others just plot-points to push through until the next good bit. It was a fun ride but not a "You HAVE to read these!" sort of ride. I enjoyed them and would recommend them as a tasty-enough bit of brain candy if you enjoy the idea of vamps but want to more focus on the idea of Magic circles and teen drama than on biting, blood, vamp politics and such staple tropes of vamp stories.
