I got this series a year ago as a gift from my mom and I didn’t know what it was about. I started reading the first book without knowing I was starting one of my favorite series of all time and that I was going to finish reading all three of them in less than a week.
In this series we follow Mara Dyer as she wakes up in the hospital with no memory of how she got there only knowing that her friends are dead and she was the sole survivor.
This book was a solid conclusion to the series, however after book two which was spectacular I was a little underwhelm with this one. The plot twist were good but they didn’t pack a punch like previous ones and the overall resolution was fine but I wanted to be blown away and I was just left wanting more in the bad way.
The plot was extremely interesting and had me hook since page 1. I was frustrated with Mara, I wanted her to be okay and I felt her frustrations as my own. However,
I still adore the series and the characters and I still believe it is an amazing series that stands the test of time however, compared to the second book that in my opinion was a masterpiece this book fell a little short in my opinion. But as you can see from my rating I still loved this book and I am sure this series will definitely become one of my favorites of all time.

I was annoyed with her in this one, she felt whiny and wanted to be a victim and I did not appreciate how she thought it was okay to lose control like that and start killing people with no remorse.I still adore the series and the characters and I still believe it is an amazing series that stands the test of time however, compared to the second book that in my opinion was a masterpiece this book fell a little short in my opinion.

I did really enjoy the book, but I thought it was a little slower than the others. At the end though I was quite happy with how it wrapped up bringing the little blurb at the very beginning of the first book to make sense and that to me is a winner.

I'm really sad that I wasn't able to enjoy this book as thoroughly as I did the first two. I loved the first two books in this series, but the final one just did not seem to measure up.
There was no suspense or mystery or anything...it was all very dull, which was kind of heartbreaking because this was one of my favorite series, but now because of this book, I have to say that it sort of ruined all of the books in this series for me.
I know that the author is planning on writing a spin-off trilogy written from the POV of Noah, but I'm not sure if I would read it just because of how disappointed I am in this book. But we'll see.

I very rarely write reviews, but this forced me to have to write down what I'm feeling. And to sum it all up: WHAT???
I'm gonna be honest right now and say that I have no idea what these books are about. Every single thing that happened intrigued me and blew my mind, but multiple people have asked me what the books are about, and I just shrug because I really don't know how to answer that question.
I really did love this series. I just am not sure how to really work out everything I am feeling. I know I was eager to find out what would happen next. I know I loved how this series was like nothing I have read before. I loved how the plot continued moving and the characters were very intriguing.
However, I did not like how the characters ignored very vital points in the plot (like excuse me, murder?? Fake identities?? Come on people, this isn't something we can just pass over). I didn't like how so much was left unanswered.
I also have no freaking idea what the ending meant. I mean I have a pretty good idea, but I also can't wrap my head around it. I think I may be prematurely trying to dissect this story. I need time to digest what I have just experienced.
So I will end this review with a few things: I loved this series, I need more answers, and there is so much I still need to try and figure out.

9 months to read this book
9 years to finish the series
What a truly YA read that was, I am about 9 years too old for this, so glad it’s finally over

My expectations were higher...
As much as I liked Mara's character in the first two books, I couldn't stand her in this one, she was so annoying and making so many bad decisions that weren't helping her.

Creepy, Scary, Disgusting, Mental but brilliant as always.
