Wow i Finished this book and just wowow. Still wasn't excited the book ended at 90% on my ereader, but that is an incredibly minor nit to pick.
An incredible ending to an incredible series. This book is a little different than the others, but as the ending book of the series I think it had to be. I may or may not have cried near the end of this book.

CAWPILECharacters.so much was learned in this book. while i understand the point of waiting to have Hoa's voice till the end, when you actaully learn it was him all along. I loved his viewpoints and seeing the past and what happened in the shattering. Finding out that Hoa is telling Stone Essun her life story and that they are going to be together making the world a better place. so amazingEssun i felt like did quite a lot less in this book. but thats part of her progression. she does less while doing more, because she can't use her orogeny, but has to rely on others. I was sad to see Lerna die. :( "winning" the fight by letting go, and loving her daughterNassun, i still have a bit of trouble seeing her as a more powerful orogeny/magic user than her mom, but i'm willing to overlook it for the sake of the story, which is powerful. When Nassun saw that her mother was reaching for her and that she loved her that was so amazing. I really felt like the essence of a 10-11 year old was captured in this book more than in the 2nd book.Schaffa still a dick, even though he's mostly unconscious for this book.Atmospherean incredibly vived and definitly unique atmosphere, it definitly draws you in and you get absorbed into itWritingThe writing is still incredibly, definitely didn't sag or lower itself after writing 3 books. still incredibly beautiful writing and prose.PlotAs the concluding book in the series, the plot was brought to the front more so than in previous books, which sometimes had a couple of inconsistencies with me. mainly involving father earth. but again not enough to turn me awayIntrigueThe Worldbuilding that we learn in this book is just incredibly and really had me coming back for more, every time I opened the book.LogicThe logic of the characters felt consistent and realisticEnjoymentwhile i can't give it a 10/10 on enjoyment, i really did enjoy reading this book, but i doubt many rereads will happen.
