How can I not give this 5 stars?
It was epic all the way through.
Such a satisfying conclusion...
It was everything I hoped for and more.
I was sobbing for so much of the ending... The last pages I could barely read through my tears.
It feels so weird to now have to say goodbye to this world, these characters.
But I am so very thankful to Robert Jordan and Brandon Sanderson for giving me this experience.

This book... I cannot even begin to describe what it made me feel. Yet I shall make an attempt.
It gave me hype like I have never experienced in a book before.
It made me feel sad, with such a dark outlook for a character.
It made me laugh.
It made me cry. (Lord knows I did plenty of that)
It made me feel things.
I fellt chills, I fellt tears down my face.
Rarely, dare I say never, have words accomplished this quite as well as this particular book.
Mister Jordan, Mister Sanderson,
thank you so very much for sharing this story
I absolutely loved this!! Especially one specific part of the ending, that legit had me smiling an hour afterward.
And yet again, the finale was spectacular. They just never disappoint, do they?
It does feel weird to have read the last book completely written by Robert Jordan. But, if I may say so, he finished in style.
4.5*
This has to be the most comfy, cosy book I've read.. ever, I think. When the plot came, I was like, can we just go back to coffee please? I was content with that xD
The characters were all so nice as well, except for that one guy - you know who you are.
Yeah this was the book I never knew I needed, and I wouldn't have expected to like this much.
I loved seeing characters we know back when they didn't know what they were doing. It's like you know what persons they're gonna become, but they obviously don't yet, and for some reason that gave me enormous satisfaction.
I didn't expect a real finale, but I mean, it's Robert Jordan, I should've known better xD
Needless to say I liked the finale a lot.
A specific storyline felt kinda slow to me, and didn't interest me all that much. It got better though. Robert Jordan, in my opinion, always does that to storylines where nothing happens for a while. He'll then just casually throw something in there that makes me freak out.
This finale... It went so hard. I loved every bit of it. As usual xD
These WoT books continue to impress me. Even though this book was a tad slower than previous ones, the ending was a banger, as I've come to expect from RJ.
There was a relationship bit that really annoyed me, that I wish was handled differently, but then there were other character developments that I liked a lot, so it evens out.
On to the next one!
Fredrik Backman truly has a way with words.
I go from laughing out loud to crying within the course of a few chapters. It's remarkable.
Ove is a character that is so incredibly endearing, you just want him to be okay. Yet you also want him to shout at people. As I said, it's remarkable.
The ending was the cherry on top of an already wonderful book. I adored how everything ties up.
Backman is quickly making his way up to my favourite authors.
There are so many plotlines that converge so beautifully, it's amazing.
I also love how my opinions on characters can change so drastically over the books xD
And, repeating myself once again, THE ENDINGS ARE SOMETHING ELSE
I was a bit worried considering there weren't many pages left, but RJ deliverd once again
Now excuse me while I go running around screaming
Points of critique: it was very predictable, and the themes were somewhat heavy-handed
However
The themes were so beautiful, so well written, that I can forgive much. This book truly got me thinking about life. When I was halfway through and was walking outside thinking about it, I found myself smiling.
Lots of beautiful passages, with beautiful messages.
Never thought I'd be able to say a murder mystery would feel comfy, yet hear we are.
Miss Marples is such a fun detective!
I also appreciate the clues Agatha Christie got in. The answer seems so obvious once she lays it out, but I didn't even come close to figuring it out myself.
A truly joyous read, this was.
It's hard for me to put a rating on this one.
I respect it for what it is, and I enjoyed it in a “sickening” sort of sense. But it left me with such a disturbing feeling that I think I shall steer clear from any Stephen King books. Maybe Dark Tower, since that seems more up my alley, but I'll be hesitant towards it for sure.
I'm glad I read it though if only to broaden my horizons.
