Monty and Felicity were as insufferable as always, but Adrian, I just wanted to hug him and protect him from anything and everything in this world.

I would give this third part a third place, but it was still entertaining. 🌬️ The use of "melancholia" and "panophobia" was also interesting. 💛

But I think instead of Adrian I would've preferred a book about Percy or Sim! 🏴‍☠️

After the unexpected death of his mother, Adrian finds himself tracking down the source of a spyglass she had obsessed over before she died. The search leads him all over Europe and the African coast with two siblings he never knew he had, as he strugglings with crippling anxiety, intrustive thoughts, and obsessive behaviors, hoping finding answers will help him let his mother go and find peace in his own life. Personally, was my least favorite of the series, mainly because I wanted so much more of the older characters like Percy and Sim, but it is a satisfying conclusion to the series as a whole.
