A great conclusion to the inheritance games trilogy. The twists the turns were so amazing and unexpected

the fact that Toby’s daughter betrayed Toby and Avery and helped kidnap him

such a great read, even though I’m not sure how the next two books go in the series I can’t wait to read them

The series should have ended on the second book, at least. All I could think since the very first page was that the author was really scrapping the bottom of a barrel where the food was also slightly past expiration date. Maybe if this book wasn't part of this series I would have been slightly more tolerant. To b honest, at some points I just skipped full pagest to end the suffering sooner. I do appreciate that the author at least tried to pretend this all had been planned from the beggining but there are only so many places a story  that was already finished could go.

I would've loved more Nash. I did not expect the ending, not satisfying but it took me by surprise, which I like.
