I enjoyed this series as a whole, but this book took me an extremely long time to finish. Thankfully, I was able to borrow the audiobook from Libby and read half of it like that. There were so many revelations that left me with my jaw on the floor. I wish I hadn’t gotten the epilogue spoiled by the wiki but I still liked it. I think the main reason I got into a reading slump was because of how long the book was rather than the content. My favorite scene was the Puppeteer’s speech. Absolutely heartbreaking and shocking. Never expected to read that type of scene in a Marissa Meyer book. Outstanding execution (no pun intended).

THAT FREAKING ENDING!!!!! I can’t believe she left us with that plot twist right in the epilogue!

It’s been a while since I read Renegades and Archenemies, but it was easy to fall back into the superheroes world. I’ve always been a fan of those stories, and Marissa Meyer wrote this one brilliantly. The story kept surprising me.

It’s not perfect, and it relies a little too much on romance as “stronger than anything else”, but it was very entertaining. I’m glad I finally finished this trilogy. Kinda wish there was a spin-off following that epilogue though 😅

 I can't quite put my finger on why I didn't *love* the ending, but regardless, I did really like the whole series, and even the bits of the ending I thought I wasn't going to like worked well enough when it all came together. 

 Overall, I feel like this series had potential to be the most amazing thing ever that I recommended to everyone I know, but fell short to *merely* be a very enjoyable read that I'd be happy to re-read a few times. Not bad at all, and still recommended for people who would enjoy YA superhero type stories.
