This was a fun book. We get to see these teens all a little older and a little more mature. We get to see the plot line of these books kind of come to a close, while seeing the prophecy become fulfilled. I thought it was a satisfying conclusion to the series, and also set up the next series nicely. I'm excited to get into the next series because I've heard they're a little more mature. One of my biggest obstacles in this series was that they were obviously written for a much younger audience, so I had a hard time connecting. I feel like if I had read these when I was this age, I would've been absolutely enamored with it. Today, I still definitely respect the story and understand it's hype, I just couldn't connect as well. Still definitely worth the read!
