AAAHHHHH *Crying Jerry gif*
The fact that I've been waiting a whole year just for Kate to fuck me over with this book is crazy. It feels so weird to say goodbye to those characters. So bittersweet. When I started Saints last summer I had no idea that I will get attached to them so much. And here I am, a year later, having no idea how to move on from them. Like, what do you mean it's over? This is truly one of those stories that stay with you forever. Aya and Will will always be one of my top couples. There's just something so soft about them. AND LIAM?? My boy was KILLING it. This book did him justice and he deserves it. Also Aidon, I wasn't familiar with your game lmao. He was amazing in previous book but Kate let him shine in this one. I was kicking my feet every time he appeared. And then there's Aya. My precious girl who deserves the world. She's definitely one of my all time favourite FMCs. Watching her finally completely allowing herself to be vulnerable was one of the highlights of this book. She's come a long way for that. The finale of the book and the series itself couldn't be more perfect. Because it's so Aya. It fits her so, so, so much. And after everything she and Will have gone through she deserves peace. This book managed to destroy me and then put me back together. Only to shatter my heart again and mend it in the end. Thank you, Kate, for the emotional damage. It was a hundred percent worth it.

WOW!
What an incredible end to this amazing trilogy!
It picks up right where The Curse of Sins ends and I was hooked instantly. I enjoyed being back with the characters and Aya remains one of my favourite FMC of all time. I think I went through an entire range of emotions whilst reading this book and I adored the ending. 10/10 would recommend and also Kate, I beg you write more books (maybe on some of the side characters???).

I do get nervous going into final books when both books have been incredible, especially with the ending - but it was absolutely perfect it was incredible and couldn't have asked for a better end to the series. Overall I loved it, I was crying in the middle of my flight from Nice, France and just couldn't put it down. Devoured it! All in all probably my favourite series ever - from the first line of book 1 to the final line of book 3, I was hooked and I recommend EVERYONE read it!!!!! Thank you Kate for the amazing journey you took me on with Aya and Will, I feel as if I know them because of how beautifully written they were and truly an emotional roller coaster.

4.5 STARS

I have such a deep love for this series by Kate. She has this crazy ability to create such rich characters that are so representative of real human beings. Most of all, I love how all of the characters are not perfect. They are sometimes misguided and make errors whilst having good intentions. They also show great strength through unimaginable loss. 🥹

The curse of Gods is the final book in this trilogy and my gods did it deliver. I devoured this books in 8 hours because I simply could not stop. I loved how we saw such a difference in the relationship between Will and Aidon and that they were opening up to each other about thoughts and feelings that hadn't really be talked about before. These chapters were by far my favourite to read.

There was only one part around the 60-70% mark that I felt was just a bit too rushed (somewhere near a lake 👀). Everything that that happed in the book prior was touched on but it just seemed that the short conversation that happened between two characters didn't touch on things enough and I would have loved to see more depth and emotion during that seen.

I really don't want to spoil too much in this review since there's a lot that is happening since the end of Sins but this was a fantastic ending to a great series. I sat on my couch staring at the wall for 10 minuets once I read the last line. 🥲

Thank you Kate for writing such a beautiful series!

A fitting conclusion to an action-packed and wildly underappreciated fantasy series that showcases deep platonic and romantic love. If you liked Throne of Glass, you need to read this.

Aya and Will, the central duo of the series, are separated for more than half the book, so that could be considered an impediment for some. Aidon is given a love interest, an intriguing character, but the relationship does not feel fully developed, while Josie’s romance is more rounded.

There are nice reveals that call back to the earlier books and a suitably epic battle. The ending completely wraps up all of the central characters’ stories.

I highly recommend this book and the entire series for any fantasy or romantasy fans, and I consider myself a pretty picky reader.

Wow. I just finished The Curse of Gods, and I’m still sitting here trying to process everything. This book was a whirlwind of emotions, action, and twists that I didn’t see coming.

Aya’s journey in this finale was intense. She’s been through so much, and seeing her face her fate head-on was both heartbreaking and empowering. The stakes were higher than ever, and I couldn’t put the book down.

Will and Aidon’s dynamic was another highlight. There were moments that made me smile, and others that had me tearing up. It was messy, complicated, and beautiful.

The world-building continued to impress. The magic system, the politics, the history—it all felt so rich and immersive. I felt like I was right there with the characters, experiencing everything alongside them.

There was one scene around the 60-70% mark that felt a bit rushed compared to the rest of the book. I wish there had been more depth in that moment, but it didn’t take away from the overall impact of the story.

This series has been a rollercoaster, and this final book delivered everything I hoped for and more. If you’re into epic fantasy with complex characters and a plot that keeps you on the edge of your seat, definitely check it out.

*thank you to netgalley and the publisher for an early copy of this book in exchange for an honest review*

A nice conclusion to the trilogy. I do love these characters and their relationships with one another. There is something lovely about he,, even if the relationships are slightly predictable and a bit cosy. The world building is good and well kept up throughout.
