Sorrow and Starlight

This might be my least favorite book in the series. It's not that it's bad; it just felt too drawn out. In fact, it took me the longest to finish because of how repetitive it seemed.

I did enjoy seeing different POVs—Leon's chapters, in particular, were really funny—but even with those additions, they didn't significantly impact the story's progression. The first half of the book was heavy and heartbreaking, with everyone mourning the losses from the previous book. While I completely understand and shared in the grief, it eventually felt excessive. It wasn't until the last 20% that I found myself enjoying it again, as the story picked up with more action.

Overall, this book gave me the impression that the publishers might be trying to stretch the series out for the hype. A few extra chapters in Book 7 could have wrapped things up nicely. Instead, this book feels like it drags the plot too thin, making it exhausting to read. At this point, I just want the series to conclude.
