This series was crazy. I loved the dystopian setting, ( wow I never thought I would say that) and the characters. I will defiantly remember David for his bad metaphors. That has to be the most interesting characteristic I've ever read. When it came to the plot I felt like it was slow in some places. I enjoyed having a new setting in each book, going from Chicago to New York to.. Mississippi? I left like the villain wasn't as intimidatingly as other books. The relationship between Megan and David was hard to make out. I wish they had more time, just being them, then having the plot put them together because it was centered around the problem and not each other.

Good! I liked the ending, and I liked the subtle romance even tho I could've had more :) Overall the plot twists were there and I liked the hopeful message, good series. I also really liked that David had the powers at the end, solid choice :)

Brandon Sanderson doesn't disappoint with the ending to his Reckoners trilogy. Great plot with plenty of action and some intrigue added. All in all, a book worth reading.

As I was reading this book I kept doubting that this was really a trilogy. As it got closer and closer to the end I couldn't see how it was all going to wind up by the end so I was pleasantly surprised that Sanderson was able to do just that and I found the ending satisfying. Admittedly this is not a genre I read a lot so I am less than a harsh critic
