Synopsis: 
The Twisted Sisters are coming home.

Prince Quin has returned to the river kingdom, ready to spearhead a rebellion and reclaim the throne. He vows to destroy Mia, Pilar, and Angelyne if they oppose him—even if he must use his newfound magic to set the world aflame.

Across the four kingdoms, the elements have been tipped askew. Volcanoes erupt, glaciers collapse, and cities sink into the western sands. After losing Angie, Mia and Pilar journey to the glass kingdom to seek help, though soon their fragile bonds of sisterhood begin to fray. Mia’s sensations are creeping back, and with them, a deep and searing grief. Pilar, terrified of being broken, once again seeks comfort in her fists. But when they hear rumors of a misty island that promises to erase all pain, they suddenly find themselves with an answer—if they are willing to pay the cost.

As tensions mount, the sisters are drawn back to the river kingdom for a final reckoning with the boy they each loved. The shattering conclusion to Bree Barton’s Heart of Thorns trilogy challenges why we grieve, whom we love—and how to mend a broken heart.

My Rating: 

Quote(s) I Like:
"Love should always be allowed to grow, between whom ever chose to grow it. All that mattered was how well you tended it."

"Love is what happens when two people come together as equals, each with their own painful history and gifts and failings, neither of them needing to be saved." 

My Thoughts:
This was a nice conclusion to the Heart of Thorns trilogy. I truly enjoyed Quin, Mia and Pilar as characters. I enjoyed the addition of new characters but also questioned the lost of some characters. I enjoyed the world and what was shared of it. I loved the pacing and tension within this final book. You see how the trauma effects the characters and the world. You see the characters learn to love and move forward. This conclusion didn't leave me wowed, but it left me satisfied with how things ended. Definitely would recommend the book and trilogy as a whole.
