I really really liked it! It was so much better then the other two! I didn't like the ending though.

Good ending to a good series. Not great though. No big climax or anything and the main character came off a little whiney. I think the author ran out of ideas but needed to wrap up the series somehow.

What was the point here? I mean, really? What was the point? This book went in pointless circles the entire time. It didn't go anywhere. Sure, I guess there was a slight revelation but I don't think it needed an entire book. I felt like I had wasted my time.

This book is ok. Odd writing style.

Official rating: 0.5 stars.

No comment.

Actually, just a little one. What the heck Lisa McMann? She obliterated all of the hard work she had put into this series by writing Gone. She completely forgot about character development and just took every character 1000 steps back from progress, she let go of one of the important essences of this book which I appreciated so much, which was the comic relief. I laughed with Wake and Fade. I didn't even crack a smile with this one. I hated how she was guiding the storyline through, it was too sped up, too jumbled up. Too depressive, no hope. What kind of message is she trying to send to her readers?

For me, there has never been any other book that I've been most disappointed in reading. I can't stop thinking on whether McMann just got tired of the Dream Catchers trilogy and decided to give it a horrible ending so everyone forgot about it or if she was just plain dumb.

UGH.

The biggest problem is that the book doesn't feel nessecary.

Nothing new is really added to the story, the characters were acting completely different than the ones we got to meet in Wake and Fade, it was boring, there was no climax, the romance had zero passion or credibility, and I feel like instead of developing certain areas of the story, the characters seemed to be exactly where they were at the end of Fade, just between an even tighter rock and a hard place!

I'd really only reccomend this book if your such a die-hard fan that the trilogy is one of your favorites (and even then, I'd reccomend going in with caution).

It really should've just been a duology.

I was kind of lagging on this book in the beginning, but finally in the middle i got sucked in again. :) I just wished we could know what Janie did with her mother at the end. And I would probably make the choice she did too. :)

Eh...but as good as the first two. Depressing. Not sure I like the ending.
adventurous mysterious sad tense fast-paced

For me this was the weakest book in the trilogy and it felt like the entire 214 pages was an epilogue. Nothing really happens, no real excitement but at least the end was more or less satisfying?
