I enjoyed this series as a whole, but this book took me an extremely long time to finish. Thankfully, I was able to borrow the audiobook from Libby and read half of it like that. There were so many revelations that left me with my jaw on the floor. I wish I hadn’t gotten the epilogue spoiled by the wiki but I still liked it. I think the main reason I got into a reading slump was because of how long the book was rather than the content. My favorite scene was the Puppeteer’s speech. Absolutely heartbreaking and shocking. Never expected to read that type of scene in a Marissa Meyer book. Outstanding execution (no pun intended).

I’m glad to have finally finished reading this series. 
The he betrayed her no she him no he her was a bit much. It was predictable and at time very cheesy. 
I’m not the target audience for this.

An amazing conclusion to a great series. This book gripped me in a way that didn’t let me put it down, always wanting to turn to the next page. 

And that epilogue!! Wowowow

I really liked this whole series, but this was by far the best book in the series. I loved the reoccurring themes of morality, villains, heroes, justice, the grey areas in between, how everything is not so black and white, and all the other topics it touched on. Nova was my favourite character and I loved her so much, she was such a strong character and the romance between her and Adrian was well done. I thought the concept, plot, and world building were also great, and there were so many unexpected moments and twists, especially the ending. (I had a prediction for the ending, which kind of ended up happening but it wasnt final and the complete opposite then ended up happening)  The first two books I really liked, but this book I loved. This series was so fun to read and it was such a unique concept for books, since for movies superhero movies are really common, but in books there aren't half as many.
