This book was full of crazy plot twists and fantastic surprises. I loved it so much!
AHHHHH WHY DID IT END. I like it. I so enjoyed it. It was the ending it needed. I don't want to talk about how much I miss these characters
This is a seriously amazing book. If you haven't read The Darkest Minds yet you should!!!! :)
It took me a while to get into the book but once I did I couldn’t put it down. Once again Alexandra Bracken made me feel all the emotions. I feel like she did a pretty good job of wrapping up the story while still leaving loose ends. Overall a quality ending to the story.
Honestly and truly one of the best series I've read in a while. As always, Bracken delivers an action packed story full of amazing characters and emotions all over the damn place. Thank you.
This thrilling ending to the series did not disappoint. The book was faced paced and gave twists and turns long the way. Nothing is predictable about the ending and knowing there are companion books makes the ending a little more enjoyable. New friends are made, stories are finished, and lives go on. Certain parts of the book, like in the previous two, left s little confusion as to where the subject of the chapter was started from but overall good read.
I'm pretty satisfied with the ending! It was slow at the beginning but from the middle of the book I was hooked! There weren't any plot holes and everything was explained really well. The ending was really good and emotional, and these characters are really impossible to forget.

For me this book was very like Never Fade in the way that I was hoping for it to be more similar to the first book in the series, and it just wasn’t. It seems I’m just not a big fan of the story of Ruby and The Children’s League.
However, putting that aside, I did really enjoy the story, and I can’t express my love for Liam Stewart enough. Some of the writing in this was beautiful, and I found myself highlighting lines of the book- something I’ve never done before. The ending was very satisfying for me, and I don’t think the series could have been ended in a better way.

What an outstanding, concise and satisfying ending to such a great series. Honestly, kicking myself for not picking up this trilogy sooner! Bracken makes you care so deeply for these characters, so much that even when there wasn’t too much drama - I kept reading for the underlying plot, themes, relationships and characters.
It picked up right where we left off in Never Fade, which I think helped keep the suspense that had built up throughout the second book. There were strong themes in this book of what it means to be cured, the ethics of letting children choose their own fate/destiny with IAAN and also grief. Even in this fantasy world, the characters are going through common issues that lots of young people deal with.
I was especially surprised with how much I grew to love Vida in this book; she is a strong kickass female but also with such love and compassion. After being pretty much a two-dimensional character in the Never Fade, she went through such a transformation which I think Bracken has mastered with these characters. Vida also said such powerful words which made me tear up at some points tbh “Don’t give them that power. Don’t let them trap you into never saying anything. There are people worth remembering, speaking for. You’re important. You deserve to speak and have people shut the hell up and listen to you. You’re smarter than ninety percent of our population.”
There were a few parts I didn’t like as much.Personally I found Ruby and Liam’s relationship kinda ehhhh. Liam just forgave her for literally wiping his memory of him loving her and then when Ruby finds a note about Liam wanting to stay even if Ruby again purposely used her powers, Ruby had the audacity to be pissed off??? I still enjoyed the romance, but it was a low point rather than the first two books. I cared much more about the dynamics with Zu, Chubs and Vida - omg and the understanding between Cole and Ruby. I also found Clancy and Dr Gray to be like ???? How did they do anything of significance? The scenes where Ruby was fixing Lillian’s mind were ok, but I just skimmed through them. The whole plot point of Clancy putting the camp into Cole’s head so he’d die and so Ruby and Clancy could destroy the government together and then Clancy ended up being healed?? It’s literally all so pointless, I didn’t expect the plot twist because it’s just kinda dumb I suppose. But I still gave the book 4.5 stars because it’s the character content that I would die for.
At the end though, the circular structure of the trilogy made me really happy. And the fact thatRuby managed to walk even with a broken leg out of Thurmond, the place that had almost destroyed her. The scenes of soldiers putting down their guards too and wrapping up a girl in gear and handing her to her mother also made me cry. It showed that little piece of humanity that hopefully all humans will always have.
Overall I fully enjoyed the Darkest Minds trilogy so much! The cast of characters will forever stay with me and so will the whole message. Of independence, love and strength, it’s such an empowering book and I will treasure it for time to come.
