I really liked this. Well thought out, heart-wrenching. I liked the character development a lot. Great ending to the series. I'll definitely reread this series again!
Enjoyed this book. Great series and I hate to see it end!

No words can describe exactly how amazed I was with Into The Still Blue. Veronica Rossi has written such an exceptional trilogy and wrapped it up so perfectly! Into The Still Blue blew me away- there’s no doubt that this last installment is my favourite in the series.
Endings always are bittersweet for me. I don’t want to ever say goodbye to all the characters who’ve become a part of me and who’ve touched my heart so dearly. Needless to say, I really enjoyed this last hurrah with Aria, Perry and Roar. They’re such flamboyant characters, the type that is etched in your mind forever, and I’m so happy to have been a part of their journey- to have seen them rise and thrive.
“I needed to find you.”
“I know,” he said. “The second I left you, I felt the same way.”
In fact, I loved the way most of the characters were molded, how there was so much transformation, and more importantly, so much depth in them. Rossi captures them so perceptively and you really feel strongly about each and every one. For example- I really really hated Sable and wanted to punch him in the face constantly. He was so horrid as an antagonist that you can’t help but really cheer on the protagonists to prevail. Also, aside from my fave trio, I became surprisingly fond of Soren and Brooke, as well as most of the Tides. I found myself sharing their conviction to persevere and reach the Still Blue.
Like in the first two books, Into The Still Blue had so much going on. It was action-packed, thrilling and totally intense. You get this feeling that every part is crucial- and that really is how it is. I loved how there was some meticulous strategizing and scheming here and there and also how there was teamwork involved. There was never any dull moment in Into The Still Blue- you’ll just get so engrossed that you won’t be able to stop reading!
“What I was trying to say,” he whispered, “is that I see you in everything. There isn’t a word for you that means enough, because you’re everything to me.”
The best thing about this series though is its escalation. The excitement increases and the feelings heighten with each book. Aria and Perry’s relationship has grown so ravishingly and I keep finding myself falling in love with them even more with every turn. Aria and Perry shippers like myself won’t be disappointed with the amount of swoon! Also, it is official that my adoration for Roar’s character knows no bounds. Best guy-bestfriend in the history of YA ever! I love his and Aria’s platonic friendship so much and of course his brother-like bond with Perry.
Into The Still Blue was this top-notch climax and I found myself loving it to bits. While I’m sad that we’ve reached the end of such a remarkable dystopian series, I am beyond glad that the conclusion was truly astonishing! Veronica Rossi, you rock!

I thought that this was a decent ending to the series. I definitely preferred the first 2.5 books in the series. Sadly, Into the Still Blue didn't hold my interest as much as the others. I also got a little annoyed with Aria and Perry at times...well mostly Perry. I just didn't like his attitude or the chip he had on his shoulder at times (hey, I'm being honest here). I read Brooke's novella before this and loved it! My favorite characters ended up being Soren, Roar, and Brooke. I would love another story mainly about them!
All I can say is AMAZING!!!!!! Mrs. Rossi has pulled together an incredible cast of characters, a wonderful plot, and a satisfying, heartwarming conclusion to her Under the Never Sky series.
ITSB picks up just days after we last saw Aria and Perry leading the surviving Dwellers back to the Tides compound/cave. Aria has been drifting on pain medications after being shot in the arm at the end of book two, Perry is trying to settle his tribe into the caves and figure out what to do about the increasingly dangerous Aether storms, Roar has just returned without Cinder, and the Dwellers are trying to adjust to living on the Outside. All within the first two chapters of the book!
Without giving away any spoilers, the plot is simple. Find Cinder and find the Still Blue. I can't say much more than that! What I can say is there are plenty of ups and downs and twists and turns to keep the plot moving and you as the reader on pins and needles. The character development of our MCs and some ancillary characters such as Soren and Brooke were a nice surprise and I'm happy to say added greatly to the story. The world building is fantastic, I could easily picture America after the Unity and what are MCs are going through.
I read this book in less than 24 hours and just could not sit it down! I also went through about half a box of tissue from sad and happy tears. So do they find and reach the Still Blue? Does Liv reappear? Does Aria ever find out about her father? What about the hostility between Roar and Perry, is it resolved? Go pick up a copy and find out!

I would LOVE it if books in a series or trilogy had a recap at the beginning. I think I would have enjoyed this book a lot more if it hadn't taken me so long to remember and get back into the story line. Having said that, this was a good book and a good ending to a trilogy I've enjoyed.
I just can't believe it's over. This is such an amazing series and this book was just perfect. I will have more soon!
I loved this series.
The ending was a bit abrupt, everything happened to quickly for my taste ... but that seems to be the problem with most endings of stories you don't want to end.
Anyway, I liked it nevertheless.

Dude. Duuuuuuuuude. THIS BOOK.
I made the right decision, rereading the first two books before starting on this one. I first read them early last year so I forgot a lot of things (I didn't even remember who Brooke was when the novella came out!). By rereading, I fell in love again with Aria and Perry, Roar, and the rest of the characters.
I don't think anything I say will bring this book justice but suffice to say I enjoyed the ride immensely. Into the Still Blue has got to be one of the most satisfying conclusions to a series; I'm putting it at the same level with Marie Lu's Champion. I will surely be missing this universe :')

Best third book in a trilogy I've read in a long time. Better than Mockingjay or Allegiant, imho.
