This book was amazing! I liked the exploration of grief, love, and moving on. The characters! The nostalgia! Immaculate! Narratively, it was not perfect. I am under zero delusions that this was a flawless conclusion. It could have had better conflict resolution and the ending definitely felt slightly rushed. But, I left feeling satisfied, which is the best thing a conclusion can accomplish. There were many squeals (especially when CERTAIN CHARACTERS had cameos), numerous gasps, and an occasional “AWWWW!” I loved this book. Objectively, maybe it was a 4 star. But emotionally, as a longtime fan of this world and these characters, as a reader who loves those moments that bring on that sweet sensation of gratification and nostalgia found only in very few, very special novels, I loved this book. It wasn’t perfect, but it gave me everything I wanted from it and more.
