“You can never lose me. But you‘re free. You‘re not a queen anymore; you can come and go as you please. The island will always be here.” She claps Arsinoe on the shoulder, and she and her cougar face out toward the open sea.
“Now let‘s go find your boy.”

Arsinoe, fugitive queen of Fennbirn Island, sits stone faced before the desk, surrounded by crumpled balls of parchment. She has not slept but a few hours, and the light spilling in through the cut-stone window hurts her eyes; it shows the dark hollows beneath them and the gray hue of her face.

This was an epic ending for the series. This book had me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading. It completely took me by surprise. I would recommend reading the entire series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

A satisfying conclusion to a series I love. It wasn't my favourite book of the series, but I love this world, the magic system and the characters.

"The dead queens started this fight. But it is the living ones who will finish it"

Ok, I am super late and had this on my tbr shelf for over a year...but I didn't want it to end. What a perfect ending to an amazing series, not what I expected at all.

Determined to finish this before the end of the year, but it's been pretty slow going. Did anyone else kind of stall on this series? Anyone absolutely love it? Anyway, #TomKitten seems curious about it, so I guess I'll keep pushing through. #currentlyreading #CatsOfLitsy

Finally finished, but finished disappointed. It‘s not that I didn‘t see the survivors winning ahead of time, but it just didn‘t feel like it officially wrapped up. Things were left unsaid, people weren‘t able to be redeemed— such a bummer. Could‘ve been done better. Sad because the first two were pretty entertaining— definitely finish the series, but prepare for disappointment. 5/10

This final book in a fantasy quartet was not everything I had hoped for. The series was somewhat uneven for me but I really enjoyed the world building and some of the characters throughout. I felt there were some lazy plot devices used and multiple loose ends never tied up. It didn‘t seem carefully plotted from book 1 to book 4. Flaws aside, I still enjoyed reading it and that‘s how I like to rate books! Reading outside before it gets too hot 🥵

This series pretty much wore me out with the last book (which I actually DNF'd) but it had a decently strong ending. Not where I thought it would go but not as bad as I figured it would have been. Better than ok but I'm glad I've finished

The conclusion of the series. I don‘t know if this series changed after the first 2 books or if I‘VE changed but this just seemed like really young YA😕 (and I do generally like YA) Simplistic plot/foils.. and the audiobook version is TERRIBLY done. While it was nice to be back with familiar characters, I‘m glad to close this chapter. However, I‘m grateful for the friends I‘ve made along the way that this series has brought me. ☺️

This was a surprise end to the Queens. I enjoyed the story and was even satisfied with the ending. This is #4 and final book in the Three Dark Crowns series.

1. Wake up early when I‘m not working. My husband is gone and the house is peaceful.
2. I have no clue. I would love to own one but never thought about a name.
3. My be are done different ways. I have a section of my favorite series, teen section, adult, middle grades, misc. My husband‘s books have their own bookshelf. I also have a shelf dedicated to just the books I own but have not read.

My sleeping babies spending time with me as I read. It has been a rough day. We are peaceful now.

😂😂😂

Baby Tiger loves to read with me.

What is it called when the pages are done like this? Thank you!

I did some #audioknitting while I finished the tagged book. Blake takes the finale in some interesting directions and I applaud her for her daring, but I think I‘d have enjoyed it a lot more if I‘d reread the rest of the series first. Oh well.

Wow 🖤 I finished this series today and that‘s about all I can say to sum it up. I had to know how it ended, but I‘m also sad it‘s over. Highly recommend for YA fantasy.

Great end to the series - 5 🌟. I especially appreciated the exploration of the history behind the traditions of the three sisters.

Gahhh I just finished this series, and I knew where it was going but that doesn‘t mean I have to like it! 😤😂
I enjoyed the world and though Blake does a lot of build up, I found myself lost in the story a majority of my reading. There were unanswered questions that seemed to disappear because they didn‘t serve the story‘s plot any more, and just weird character decisions.
Idk I just did not think this ending suited.
Spoilers ⬇️ under tag.

I loved this series!!! There's a great sense of humor! Five Dark Fates concludes the story of the triplet queens on Fennbirn Island. I can't say I was fond of everything that happened - but I realized after I finished, the ending was truly the only really possible ending. Very satisfying. I don't want to say too much and give it all away!! Just...you need to read it 😆 😁

Starting this one!!

Great conclusion to the series.

This series has been a little up and down for me, but I'm invested enough to want to see how it all ends. Anyone else out there a fan of the Queens of Fennbirn? #MagicalSetting #NewYearNewYou

On to the next book! I hope this series has an amazing conclusion!

I had big plans of getting up early and reading most of the morning. But I wake up with an awful headache so i didn‘t get any reading done until this afternoon. I really enjoyed this book and the pages flew by. I was happy with how the series ended, but I still wanted more. I will have to check out the authors other books. This is my first completed book in the #24b42020 readathon.

Finishing up Five Dark Fates by Kendare Blake then starting The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. Staying home again to care for the sick children means reading time while they rest!

Another book in the three dark crowns series. I love the characters and it was a pleasure to sink back into the world. Even if it did take me a little while to remember what was going on, because it has been a while since I read the last one.

I wanted to do a longer review of this book but I don‘t want to spoil anything for anyone. I loved this series all the way through and it has been my go to recommendation to people. My favorite character changed with each book and I didn‘t get bored with any of the books (which usually happens to me with a series). I was worried I would be disappointed by the ending of this series but I definitely wasn‘t.

I loved this book and this whole series. I thought Five Dark Fates ended the series perfectly! One thing that I really liked about this series was that there were no dud books. Usually second or third books fall flat in a series but I absolutely loved every one of Kendare Blake‘s books!!!

It‘s quiet at my daycare. For once all of the kids are napping at the same time. I can‘t resist the chance to get some reading in! I need to find out what Jules Milone is up to!

I‘m up before the sun with two of my favorite things. A homemade latte and a good book! So far I am loving this book, but I‘m not sure I want the Three Dark Crowns series to end!!!

It took me forever to read this, since work has been so nuts, but it was good. I thoroughly enjoyed this whole series.

Behold my TBR pile for tomorrow‘s fall @DeweysReadathon (otherwise known as my second favorite day of the year, behind Halloween).

I very much enjoyed the final book in the Three Dark Crowns series, though the ending did leave me a bit flat. It tied up every loose end but I can‘t say it was a happy ending at all, it was dark & bloody but wasn‘t most of the series? Bk1of my #24B4Monday #readathon is finished. On to the next! #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter #ScaryScavengerHunt #WithABlackCover 12points +10points #PointsTotal-1,286

I managed just over 5hrs before turning everything off & getting a few hours sleep. It‘s now 10am Friday 25th Oct & I‘m 2/3 of the way through this last novel in the Three Dark Crowns series. So far it‘s been really good! Hopefully I‘ll finish this in a few hours, then I may switch to an audiobook to rest my eyes a bit before opening another novel this afternoon. #24B4Monday #readathon #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter 11points +20 PointsTotal-1,234

The 1st hour is done in my #24B4Monday #readathon, which means 5points to #TeamSlaughter! And I‘m over 100pgs into this book🙌 Off to a great start so far, have you started the readathon yet? Or are you in a different time zone. #Scarathlon #PointsTotal-1,147

It‘s 12.05am Friday 25th Oct here in Sydney so I‘m kicking off this Halloween version of the #24B4Monday #readathon with the last book in the Three Dark Crowns series by Kendare Blake. I love this series, it‘s a unique take on royal succession stories, triplet queens, each with a unique power, raised separately until they battle for the crown on their 16th birthday. Dark & brutal. #Scarathlon #TeamSlaughter 1point #PointsTotal-1,141
