spoilers for book 15 below. Hi all, I just finished re-reading the whole series (including the winglets and the legends books). I hadn't read WoF in literal years, i think like 5-6 years lol. For the most part I wasn't too emotional while reading, however the book 15 finale made me tear up. The scene where Luna severs the Breadth of Evil from Cottonmouth's head but not Lizard/Freedoms and Lizard/Freedom gets angry at her? Oh, I was so close to tears. The only thing that stopped me was the fact I was on an airplane and too shy to cry in public, lol. I only wish that Luna and Dusky told Lizard/Freedom that they loved her before she died. I think then I really would've bawled. It was cruel that even with Luna and Dusky to comfort her, Lizard/Freedom didn't get to actually hear the words "I love you." I could talk about the scene with Lizard/Freedom and Luna for a while, it is just so sad. What scenes are similar for you all? What scenes bring you close to tears or full on sobbing? I know there's so much loss and pain in WoF but certain scenes just tear you up. It's a morose question, but I am rather curious to hear everyones answer! :,)

I don't cry in books, but reading through Darkstalker after finishing Jade Mountain Academy arc was really sad. You knew that the friendship between the trio would come apart in the end, but it didn't make the story hurt any less. You could tell that Tui was writing from the heart.

I'll have to reread arc 2 and then darkstalkers pov, I think then I'll be hit by it stronger.

That’s fair. I don’t actually know if it matters what order you read them; it’s not like some Super Editions in WC, where some books necessarily make more sense after reading the main series.

Freedom dying was a real gut punch.

That scene at the end of The Dangerous Gift where Snowfall sees a vision from her mother's POV and Snowfall's subsequent reaction to it had me ugly crying
