Meanwhile, Scarlett has started a game of her own. She believes her own mother, who still remains in an enchanted sleep, is the rightful heir to the throne. Now, Legend is preparing for his official coronation and Tella is determined to stop it. It’s been two months since the last Caraval concluded, two months since the Fates have been freed from an enchanted deck of cards, two months since Tella has seen Legend, and two months since Legend claimed the empire’s throne as his own. Welcome, welcome to Caraval…all games must come to an end.
Welcome, welcome to Finale, the third and final book in the #1 New York Times bestselling Caraval series! Whilst using the Caraval game a third time might have been overkill, it gave structure to the first two books and without it this time, it was actually quite difficult to follow the story. I have to say though, I was kind of disappointed by this book? It lacked focus and structure and almost felt like a bunch of ideas thrown together rather than a cohesive storyline. This book was one of my most anticipated releases of this year, after loving both Caraval and Legendary, I was really looking forward to seeing how this series wrapped up and the ending of Legendary promised an exciting “Finale” (pardon the pun) and this time we got both sisters’ POV.
BECHDEL TEST: FAIL-There are no conversations between named female characters in this book that don’t somehow involve men.
