SO MANY TWIST. SO MANY HEART-WRENCHING MOMENTS. SO. GOOD.
This book keeps me at the edge of my seat and still manages to make me cry because it's just so beautiful 😭😭😭

A thousand years ago, two young lovers were betrayed-Alger Waterlow to his death, and Hanalea, Queen of the Fells, to a life without love. Now, once again, the Queendom of the Fells seems likely to shatter apart. For young queen Raisa ana'Marianna, maintaining peace even within her own castle walls is nearly impossible; tension between wizards and Clan has reached a fevered pitch. With surrounding kingdoms seeking to prey on the Fells' inner turmoil, Raisa's best hope is to unite her people against a common enemy. But that enemy might be the person with whom she's falling in love. Through a complicated web of lies and unholy alliances, former streetlord Han Alister has become a member of the Wizard Council of the Fells. Navigating the cut-throat world of blue blood politics has never been more dangerous, and Han seems to inspire hostility among Clan and wizards alike. His only ally is the queen, and despite the perils involved, Han finds it impossible to ignore his feelings for Raisa. Before long, Han finds himself in possession of a secret believed to be lost to history, a discovery powerful enough to unite the people of the Fells. But will the secret die with him before he can use it? A simple, devastating truth concealed by a thousand-year-old lie at last comes to light in this stunning conclusion to the Seven Realms series.

I'm crying my eyes out. I hope you're happy now.

I'll come back to write a coherent review when I'll stop sobbing.

Definitely my favorite series of the year. Maybe my favorite book of the year. It was great.

I think it was a good ending, but for the love of heaven there was so much talking!! It was frustrating.

First off, I’m gonna say my actual review was 4.5/5 stars! I really enjoyed coming back to this world, and how enthralling it was. It felt real, and very fleshed out. The characters were a little on the flat side, but only because I felt like we went backwards almost with Raisa’s development. The writing didn’t feel like it was anything special, even though there were slightly more mature scenes at times I didn’t like the use of miscommunication (or rather, no communication) putting a rift between Rasia and Han. If Han was honest with her from the get go, there wouldn’t have been as much headaches later with whether or not she believed him. Yes, this plot device was purposeful and much of the story would have changed without it, but its one of my personal least favorite devices an author can use. The story itself kept me reading, and I loved the overall plot, so while these might seem like big problems, I still enjoyed myself while reading. I cannot wait to continue reading in this world!

A reaaallyy good ending to the series. And that epilogue really triggered a few tears. I felt at times that there were tooo many characters, if that makes sense. It was just hard to differentiate between the minor characters, as they always happened to have similar sounding names. I want more Raisa and Han, as well!
