The final volume of the 100 series! I liked the third volume best, but this one was good too.
The fact that the story begins with a peaceful feast and everyone is happy made me suspect that something was going to happen. What came next was unexpected in terms of the basic idea, but some things during the plot, on the other hand, were predictable.
I liked that the characters' actions were relatable and you understood them. In my eyes, that wasn't the case in volume one. I also like the ending itself, but the resolution was too quick and easy and the author could have made much more out of it. Sure, there are coincidences and luck - but a bit more reality wouldn't have hurt. I don't want to anticipate too much, in case someone reads the review before reading the book. Anyway, I liked (most of) the characters and the story of "the 100" was exciting to follow! :)
