Without spoiling: what happened to Eli in the lab… made my skin crawl and stomach twist.
It ended on some loose ends and if she finished writing here, I’d understand but at the same time I’d hope some of those ties were pulled together in a 3rd book.

Once again Schwab doesn't disappoint.
I love the set up of starting from an unknown point and only giving the reader snippets from '3 weeks ago' to 'yesterday afternoon'. I loved putting the pieces together of what the separate characters were doing and seeing it all come together. The anticipation as the time got shorter leading to the climax was really fun to watch unravel.
This is the kind of thing I love. I wish Sydney and Mitch and even June all the best until I meet them again.
