Goldfinch WRECKED Me
I had no idea when starting this series, how emotionally wrecked I'd be once I finished it. It easily is one of the best series I have come across so far and I feel gutted even thinking about starting something else now.. which is probably going to push me into a very welcomed re-read. I was pulled in so many directions throughout this series, I think I both cried and laughed more than I have in any other series I've read so far. That says a lot (in my opinion) about how well this series is written and how much work went into each book.
I've read that a lot of readers struggled getting through the last few books or couldn't finish the series. There were a few times where I almost wanted to put it down and walk away >!(specifically Malina's earlier chapters that came up) !<but I'm so glad I pushed through it because I thought the last book and ending was done beautifully.
I also don't think there is any other MMC that compares to Slade and how he'd destroy everything and everyone on Auren's behalf. I also LOVED how other relationships were introduced and explored throughout the series >!(I couldn't get enough of Rissa and Osrik and was rooting for them so hard)!<.
I am seeing too that Ryatt is getting his own book. I can't find anything online about a timeline of when that will be released (I haven't done a whole lot of research on it yet since I just finished Goldfinch), but I hope it comes out soon.. I'm already feral for it😂
For those of you that are just starting Gild or in the middle of the series and getting discouraged, keep going until you finish it. It is so worth it 🔥❤️
