      Like all of Kylie Chan's series I enjoyed this book. It certainly wasn't my favourite but she has this way of captivating the reader with her simple storytelling and interesting characters.We got to see the final battle and Emma's interactions with demons and celestials alike.I enjoyed it. I was disappointed that there wasn't as much of the Tiger as previous books, because he's always been one of my favourites. And I think I would have liked a better conclusion to what happened to the stones. Other than that, though, a satisfying ending!
    • 4/5
      My biggest complaint with this series is that it didn't need to be this long. I think she loved some newer characters and pulled their storylines and their concerns into a story that was Emma's. I think she wanted to modernize their Celestials and clean up their racism, homophobia and sexism and tried to do it all. I think the series would have been tighter and more satisfying if she had stuck to Xuan Wu, Emma and Simone and eventually Frankie. I skipped through most of the 2nd book of the 3rd series. One thing I give her credit for was that I loved the characters - even the ones that should have been edited out. There was point during the occupation of Heaven that I felt like weeping because the cruelty / gaslighting / dehumanization was so realistic. What I didn't appreciate was the gratuitous sex between John and Emma. Almost to the point that it was ridiculous. Whooh. I think I've gotten all of my irritation out about this series. Read the rest if you don't care about spoilers. * SPOILERS * I nearly didn't finish the last series because she dragged everything and the kitchen sink into the story. Other things that ticked me off - if I hadn't reading it on an IPAD, I would have thrown the book across the room:* I don't know why they were so passive about about finding Xuan Wu's Serpent. * She had been lied to multiple times throughout this series and for some reason - she JUST BELIEVED THE PEOPLE WHO HAD IMPRISONED HER THAT SHE LOST THE BABY. * The constant plot twists - it was so annoying that the last BJ marriage plot twist was almost expected.* By the end of the series, I had to remind myself who all of the characters were - and SHE STILL KEPT INTRODUCING NEW CHARACTER (Dragon King, anyone?) * Xuan Wu (Turtle) serving as General when his serpent - who was connected to - was locked up with the Demon King. He was vulnerable to attack at any time and he was attacked. Whether the Serpent could hear what Xuan Wu and Emma was saying could have been an advantage to the Demon King was also annoying. WHY WAS HE LEADING THE ATTACK. The fact that they waited so long to attack Hell was annoying given that he was vulnerable through the Serpent. * The only reason I gave the final book a 4 was because the book finally delivered on the promises given at the beginning of the series: - John was united - They were married - They were a family* Nu Wa coming down was almost expected. I was looking Deus Ex Machina - but it was annoying. * I hated the fact that Kitty Kwok never died painfully. She robbed the reader of that satisfaction.
