The plot twists and connections to the other books in the series kept me interested in both Tomas and Cia. I enjoyed to new characters and some returnies as they became a bigger part of the story. 91

The first book is much stronger than #2 and #3, but I still enjoyed the series as a whole.

An amazing ending to an amazing trilogy. There are so many plot resists happening, it's hard to keep track of them all.

The final book in the Testing series is finally here. I have grown close to Cia throughout these books. I was so looking forward to reading this final book. Even though I knew it would be bitter sweet because the series was ending. I found myself struggling to get into this book. I started it and it took several tries for me to stick with it. The problem is that there was so much action in the second book with the "testing" that when I got to the final book, it was more talk then it was action. Don't get me wrong as there was some action but it did not happen until really the last half of the book. Until then, it was just Cia and her friends talking about what needed to happen. Also, Cia seemed like she was unsure of herself and had to ask others for advice before she did anything. The ending was alright. Overall, this book was not my favorite in the series but I still can't wait to see what the author has in store for the next book or series.

I enjoyed this book the most of the entire series. The writing was best in this book compared to the other two where it felt like context and imagery often lacked.

Even though I was alternately baffled by and annoyed with the plot, I still couldn't put the dang book down even though I was reading it in tiny print in a terrible format on my phone, because Charbonneau can write a page-turner.
