'Nuanced' is just the perfect term for this series, it is sooo breathtakingly epic!! I had the exact same experience with the books as you did, and I honestly still don't get why people always hate on book 3... I mean, it was such a well-balanced book that actually breaks the mold of storytelling, who wouldn't love that?! Also, the emotionsss!!! Love this review! Have you read his short story collections yet? Also impeccable! 🤩

Yessssss 💯 This series builds upon itself. Would book three or four be as good if book one hadn’t done its job? Of course not! Does that mean that each book hooks me more?? Irrefutably!! I get that the people who maybe read book three and then had to wait for book 4 it would be difficult because they do read like one narrative in a way… but even still, that book was impeccable!! I’ve not read any of his other yet, but I’ve heard great things about the Paper Menagerie so hopefully I’ll get to it sometime?

@@bookschocaholic Amen to all of that!! I think book 3 and 4 were even released within half a year of each other so the wait would be as little as possible, lol. The series just builds so beautifully, and ultimately I think the end result is better than the sum of its parts (even though each instalment is exceptional in its own way). Also, YES Paper Menagerie is incredible! Go read it already!!
