Did this take me forever to finish…? YES – but that's not the point here, the point is that I finished it. This book was stressful to say the least because I didn’t know what the book was going to go next. This was honestly so action packed but slow in certain places too (which is why it took me forever to finish).

DORIAN!!! HE IS HIMSELF AGAIN! Literally one of the best parts of the book was reading about him overcoming the “darkness” inside of him. Manon in another lifetime is actually my wife – ! I can not wait to read more about the connection between her and Dorian though. They are the definition of golden retriever boyfriend and black cat girlfriend and I’m all here for it. I loved seeing the character development of Manon – she is by far one of my favorite female main characters.

I honestly don’t have a lot of things to say about this book – maybe I am in shock knowing I only have three more books left before I end the series I’ve been reading since I was 17. Me and these characters have come a long way and it's so amazing that they’re almost to their forever happy ending.
