Like all of the times I was about to finish a book, I had a difficult time finishing it because I knew my looking glass of that world will end (unless said otherwise by the author, which is what I always hope to be said my favorite authors of my favorite books. Lol.).
I have read a few reviews from other people, who believe this last book isn't as good as the other two because Cia is more moralistic, which made the story repetitive and a boring read. I honestly expected her to be nothing but moralistic. That is who she is. It was obvious from the other two books how determined she was to not kill anyone during The Testing, during her Induction or at all while she was at the University. She was just so much more determined in this last book compared to the other two, especially since she didn't have all her memories from The Testing and because of how much she values life. I honestly think that how moralistic Cia wanted to be is how many of us would be if we were placed in her position. I would be lying if I said I'm not emotional about death as she is.
I really enjoyed reading The Testing trilogy and I really hope Joelle will find a way to continue the story. Otherwise, I will definitely be reading her other books like Need.

A disappointing end to the trilogy. Did not have the same drive the other two did and I opted to listen to the story, instead of reading, while I did other things around the house.

Stejně jako mnoho dalších hodnotím závěrečný díl jako nejslabší ze série. Nebylo to úplně špatné, ale vše bylo hrozně chaotické. Úkol, který dostala Cia, mi přišel absurdní. Dát něco takového za úkol 16ti leté holce? No nevím. Naštěstí byla kniha dost akční, takže se četla rychle a dobře. Konec byl celkem předvídatelný, i když taky až příliš komplikovaný. Celkově se mi ale série líbila.
