Okay so i guess we DON’T learn what the apples are about. Can we assume? Sure! But i would have loved a solid answer especially since they were different colors. Other than that: fantastic book series

I am totally in the minority but I was mostly underwhelmed with this book. I would’ve loved to see more of Evangeline and Jacks, and overall I felt bored a lot of the time. There were obviously some good parts, and the whimsy was ever present which made it enjoyable. But overall, I felt that it lacked something.

This series just got better and better, I hesitated between 4 and 5 star on this one only because I feel the way it ended left it open for another book however she did wrap up the storyline and I loved that ending overall. I don't know what is about a tortured romance and curses that is just a chef's kiss for me. This book gave me all the feels of my fairy tales - Beauty and The Beast, sleeping Beauty but at the same time with some kick ass fate twisting stuff. The first book was a bit slow paced and I gave it 3 stars but finishing the series I give it an overall 4.50... Also don't let my comparison to fairy tales fool you if you don't like fairy tales because this is so much more. Highly recommend.

For sure the best book of the 3 of this series. The ending is still for us to fill in and i am not the biggest fan of that. But i think Garber gracefully dealt with all the monsters giving the lovers the best chance possible.
