damn.
this book fucked me up in good ways and bad ways and I love it. I love it I love it I FUCKING LOVE IT and nobody can tell me otherwise. I didn't even use a bookmark when I read this because I knew I was gonna finish it in one sitting. gahhhhh.
this was fucking amazing. the first half of the book had me like "what the fuck what the fuck what the fuck" and the second half had me like "oh my god oh my god oh my god". at one point I had to stand up from my bed and walk out of the house because something so "holy fucking shit" happened.
also I wanna say I was so scared I wasn't gonna like this because a friend of mine had told me that there was less romance in this book compared to the other two and the main reason I enjoyed the first two was because of that but I loved this book all the same!!!
ummm so read this series if you haven't already you will not regret it.
("fuck" count: 7 lmao)

So, this book may or may not have made me cry several times. I was kind of disappointed how we only got to see Noah in the last quarter of the book. Like we got a glimpse of him, but Mara didn't actually interact with him until then.
I absolutely loved Mara, Jamie and Stella's friendship. I know Stella had the right reasons to leave, but still. There was so much potential. But at least Daniel came back. I love Daniel, he's a sweetie pie. I love how even if He didn't understand it, he fully believed Mara and her friends. Like who could get that kind of brother in life?
I feel like there were things that happened in this book, but they weren't really like, impactful? I guessed that Noah's Dad had some relation to the big reveal because he didn't really get shown but he still somehow was mentioned a lot in the book. But it feel's like Michelle just wanted to end the book and crammed everything that was left un-ended into this book. Don't get me wrong, I still love this series and this book, but I feel like their were things that could've been changed, left out or even sped up. But overall that is just me opinion.
This is also kind of off topic, but I feel like Noah's character was kind of different. Like he has a right to, he got revealed to so many things that would trigger so much trauma for him. But he still felt different. But I still loved him
I mean who wouldn't love Noah Elliot Simon Shaw?

Believe me when I say, I love this series. The whole entirety of it's being is unique, twisted, dark, beautiful, and compelling. I adore the characters, the relationships (romantic or otherwise) are gorgeous and the subtle humor and dialogue are perfect to a T.
Having said that, please be assured that I was not necessarily UNHAPPY with this book. I do, however, feel an intense feeling of…loss? I feel like so many loose ends were left to dangle and fray in the wind, and a very unhappy and uncertain future to determine past the final page. It's not every day that the Happily Ever After isn't so happy, and that's a very interesting thing to read. But when it leaves you feeling incomplete and unhappy with the circumstances that you're ending on, that isn't how you should end. Sorry, but it just bothers me, this emptiness that's been left in my chest.
Now, do I regret anything? Hell f***ing no. C'mon now, that was a one in a lifetime story. That last scene before the epilogue? (You know which one I'm talking about) I don't know about you but I've been waiting for that since book one. I could recommend this book to anyone just for the simple fact of Jamie. The pros outweigh the cons. Just be prepared for pain. Lots of pain.

I'm speechless but so happy yet sad because it's all over. My emotions were all over the place during this, especially towards the second half. I can't say much more than this without spoiling it but I will say this. I loved this book so much, I couldn't have expected anything about this book before I had read it. Michelle wrapped the story up beautifully and it makes me want to hug the book and her. Mara and Noah's story was and is amazing & Beautiful and there is a reason why it's my favorite trilogy. There is something VERY bittersweet about it ending because there is no more. But Michelle ends it in a way that makes you feel like you know what their future will hold and I feel like it will be beautiful. Thank you so much Michelle for creating and writing and putting your blood sweat and tears into this story. I'm very grateful. Now I'm gonna mention some spoilery stuff so you should just go read them all yourself now. As in RIGHT NOW! *spoilers* So I had a theory that Noah's father was the benefactor for Horizons and I was like OOOOOOOH when I realized I was right. It made me very happy, but you know not, because he sucks. This book made me have whiplash with its Romeo and Juliet like feeling when Mara died, then Noah killed himself, then Mara woke up, BUT Noah didn't really die, he just took a little while to heal UGGH that was stressful. I love love LOVED when they finally got back together. And Michelle wrote their sex scene beautifully without it being a fade to black type of situation, yet still wasn't too descriptive. She wrote it as not only two bodies becoming one, but as in two souls. You have to be very talented to be able to accomplish that. Goodbye Jaime and your hilarious character. Goodbye Noah and your heartbreakingly beautiful character who I will forever use as a fictional boyfriend. Goodbye Mara. I have thoroughly enjoyed watching through your eyes, and walking through your life. It feels like I'm saying goodbye to friends. This trilogy was/is beautiful and it will always hold a place in my heart. I will be recommending and rereading this trilogy for years to come.
Creo que este es el epílogo más ingenioso que he leído en un buen tiempo. ¡Michelle es un genio! De verdad que necesito leer más de esta autora. Dios, no puedo expresar todo lo que siento.
4.25 stars
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.
oh. my. god. it's over. this book is phenomenal.
