3.95 AVERAGE


Hmmmmm, not really sure I liked this series. I loved the first book, but then I felt that the series just got a bit too far reaching and lost its way a bit for me. Overall, it was alright, but I wouldn't be falling over myself to recommend to anyone.

This book was so fast paced I didn't even comprehend all of it. It took me days to understand all that happened. HA.
I freaking love Mara in this... she honestly does not give any F***s and still loves Noah after she figures out shes bad. I honestly love that Hodkin made it so that Mara is a "defect" in a way and nothing can change that.

There isn't much of Noah in this book but the journey Mara and her friends take is crazy and kind of hard to review. I love the ending because its sad and tragic yet also happy. I feel like there should be another book because it just kind of ends. BUT they finally got in bed together which is what I have been waiting for haha.

Something that's definitely easy to spot is how well the author handles humor. I found myself laughing out loud and chuckling every now and then and at the right moments. It didn't come out forced for me.

Of all the books in this trilogy, I liked this one the most because this book featured the least Noah hahaha. But seriously though, since there was less of him, there was more focus on the mutations and the real problem at hand instead of at the romance and that's why I love it when Noah is nowhere to be found.

This was definitely darker and gory than the previous books and I liked how the ending was handled.

As much as I enjoyed it though, I'm not giving it 5/5 because the author seems to have this habit of dropping characters off the face of the earth. That was bothersome for me.
dark mysterious

This was… I don’t even know how to describe how it makes me feel. The whole series is amazing, shocking, insane. I don’t even know how to describe how this makes me feel. Great ending. And also, I don’t know if this is right, but the whole series is Mara writing about what happened to her? Or maybe the only part she wrote was what was at the beginning of the first book and the end of this one? I don’t know really. But either way, that’s really cool.

Speaking of endings, didn’t make me cry, but I definitely could have. Just wasn’t in the right mood I guess. But I did tear up. Because it’s pretty bittersweet, because we don’t know what’s going to happen to them. But it ended at the right place, I think. I love Mara and Noah together. Perfect couple. Although she’s… not good for him, I guess you could say. But the fact that he doesn’t care and needs her, just is so sweet. I loved the epilogue so much.

Apparently there’s another series or two books about Noah. I don’t know much about these, not sure if I’m going to read them either. But if they take place after this series, then I probably will because I want more of these characters so much. But if it’s more about the history, I’m not so sure. I don’t know though, because I just want to see everybody happy and that’s how this book ended. And I’m sure that won’t be something that continues in Noah’s story. But yeah, anyway, I give both this book and this series five stars because it feels wrong not to. And it deserves it.
