Again Mark Lawrence didn’t disappoint so much depth and story seasoned heavily with history, heartache and psychology. I can’t wrap my brain around how this guy wrote this! It is so immensely complex that he lost me on page multiple times. I loved that he did a little flashback in the end but I read book one and two a year ago and I definitely should have done a reread. However, some things came back during the read and it’s was just wow, but also very heavy. This is so Sunday afternoon ‚I wanna relax‘-kinda book. The end was ok. Yeah kinda cute but I was hoping for something else. I remember that I was hoping for more on page time for Evar and Livira, but certainly didn’t happen. Also that one scene with them was ridiculous and super unnecessary plus forced in my opinion Iykyk. Still, I’m gonna keep my locked library edition and in a couple years a reread I think.

This book is just wow 😮 4.8 ⭐️ It is a really good end to this wonderful trilogy.   The whole time I was asking myself how is this going to end? Are they going to find each other? Will the world still be there?   The storyline and the character developments are really intriguing.   I can see that most people would have a problem with the holocaust time line in this Book. That’s also something I don’t usually like to read or watch.   But what you learn from the character in that period of time is just so so true!! Plus not only Yute and Kerrol grasp the message of what Anne is trying to tell them. We as readers understand the message as well!   It’s not that important to know everything, to be and see everything, at times the best place you can be and stay in, is the present!   Also in the last 15-30 pages I was asking myself how is Mark Lawrence going to end this wonderful trilogy? 🤔   He did such an amazing job. The Ending is a nice roundup but also shocking and heartbreaking at the same time! 😭🥰   This wonderful book gives you a lot to think about. I can only recommend 😌

The end of the library trilogy left me sighing. In confusion, in questions and thinking and loss. I don’t think I understood everything because of all the universes and quick changes of perspective. My brain went spinning at some point and it wasn’t so easy to continue reading. But that fits perfectly and there’s no other way to put such complexity onto pages! It’s a love-hate-relationship with this series. These books might have changed my perception of literature, wisdom and its misuse. And mostly: Compromise I was longing for a better ending for my beloved characters. It’s quite unsatisfyingly open. But I accept this as it’s the will of the fate the author wanted. I have a lot of respect for Mark Lawrence kind of thinking and philosophy, you can feel so much of his soul in his work. Once again it has a hold on me I can’t describe

I really hate to say this, because The Book That Wouldn’t Burn is one of my favorite reads of all time - but this was just such a mess?! How did we get from mindblowing time travel and race conflicts to weird action sequences and way too many characters in way too many different places?! I found the descriptions of the locations lacking, maybe the author wanted us to use our imagination to picture everything, but since I have aphantasia, that didn‘t work for me. Half the time I wasn‘t even sure what exactly was going on tbh. And not in the good way. I‘ll just pretend book 1 was a standalone.
