À propos de cet audio
Evil always seeks a foothold. We must not give it one.
The electrifying conclusion to the New York Times and Indiebound best-selling Serpent & Dove trilogy is perfect for fans of Sarah J. Maas and Kendare Blake.
Lou has spent her whole life running. Now, after a crushing blow from Morgane, the time has come to go home - and claim what is rightfully hers.
But this is no longer the Lou her friends knew. No longer the Lou who captured a chasseur’s heart. A darkness has settled over her, and this time it will take more than love to drive it out.
From Serpent & Dove to Blood & Honey and concluding with Gods & Monsters, Shelby Mahurin's stunning fantasy trilogy delivers thrills and romance.

There were a few things that kinda bugged me. Firstly, the craze that Lou was getting when she used her powers was never resolved it simply stopped when they left the river and was never mentioned again. Secondly, I was really hoping that we would learn more about what was happening in the kingdom after the battle, the logistics of how everything worked. What changes would Beau make, how would his people respond? Did this cause tension with surrounding kingdoms? What changes would Lou and Coco make, how would they handle the Blood witches and the White witches? What about relationships with the other occult creatures such as the werewolves? Third, I really wanted to hear Lou and Reeds votes! it felt like such a cop out to not include them! lastly, I do not understand what was going on with Mme Sauvage, who was she and what's with the trees?
But overall I enjoyed this book, it was much better than the second. it was adventurous, funny with lots of character development. I cried during all the Ansel stuff, but in the best way.
Good read, still wanted more

Except for the last few chapters and the epilogue, Gods & Monsters was a mess filled with frustrating tropes, even more unnecessary and loose plot points that are just added in to lengthen the book, and the lack of a strong plot to keep us entertained. Much of the political warfare between the witches vs chasseurs that was built up over the course of the first two books kind of disappeared here, except for the last few chapters.
As for the rest of it, I've literally just finished the book and I couldn't really tell you what went on because of the amount of fluff and filler that we received instead. There's a dragon, mermaids, memory loss trope (one of my most hated tropes to crop up at the end of a series), and a huge list of throwaway characters that cropped up like they're meant to make an impact (tbh most of them were forgettable).
Honestly the only thing that kept me reading was the characters, I wanted to see what the resolution was between Lou and Reid, and Coco and Beau. Most of the drama and "plot" is manufactured to add some excitement between Lou & Reid, and to kind of mimic the sexual tension they had in the first book. While I was frustrated at the annoying plot points to do with Lou and then Reid, I did think the resolution of their romance was satisfying enough to read. I was also satisfied with how a death from Blood & Honey was handled in here, as the characters are given space to grieve.
Overall, I definitely think this series has suffered as a draggy trilogy - it could've definitely been a duology instead given how little plot we have to work with. The characters are just thrown here and there with little sense or purpose, and there wasn't that much excitement when key things happened to the characters. I think the romance and banter here is the key part of the series with everything else taking a back seat, so if you're expecting a strong fantasy plot then definitely look elsewhere. Serpent & Dove was truly the best book of the series.
So Glad It's Over
