The Book That Held Her Heart (The Library Trilogy 3)

Martha Hibbs

Loved this series & how it ended

"I love Mark Lawrence, & this series didn't disappoint! He somehow managed to tie everything together while introducing new characters & places in this final quest. Great ending, even when while exploring the endless labyrinths of this library you don't ever want to stop. ["

Hate to say goodbye

"This series are the type of books where you need to a moment to process, to digest, to recall. It seems random at times, the turns they take, hut it always makes sense in the end! Now that its over, I'll need to look up more of the author's works! ["

My favorite book of the trilogy!

"Never expected 20th century Nazi occupied Europe to show up in a Mark Lawrence novel but it did and wow did it work. This book is heavy compared to the first two books. It deals with so major themes such as how knowledge can be a weapon and a curse. How without knowledge we are doomed to repeat the horrible atrocities of the past. How knowledge can also lead to enlightenment and bring those who were once enemies to peace. This was an amazing conclusion to a wonderful trilogy! My favorite book of the three! ["

Not the end I was hoping for

"I'm giving this 3 stars because despite my frustrations with it, it's still much better written than the majority of new releases. It's a book for book lovers, but it desperately needed to be parsed down. Heavy handed metaphors and morality lessons makes for a slow read. For me, it was a disappointing third installment. The first book had a twist that stunned me, and was so meticulous in it's world building that I was hooked. The second book became increasingly complex, and as it introduced more and more characters it also become less and less precise, until it suddenly tumbled into the grotesque. This book pushed us further into philosophical ramblings and vague "library magic somehow" solutions. Many characters were simply dumped to the side of a meandering plot, and new ones were introduced without adding enough value. The constantly shifting settings didn't allow me to be invested in any particular storyline. Choices were made that felt so at odds with the characters that I couldn't even feel upset. While it does wrap it all up with a bow, I can't help feeling we all deserved a different ending - the library, the characters, and the readers. ["
