This was a great way to tie up loose end from the Unwind Dystology. Each story had somewhat of a slow start but it was easy to push through considering this series always delivers an emotionally charged, life-or-death scenario that build on the world. I was especially compelled by Brooklyn &

Miracolina’s

stories.

Interesting addition to the Unwind dystology. I didn't think anything could disturb me as much as Shusterman's original dystology. I was wrong. There are stories in this book that are the stuff of nightmares.

This was a fantastic short story collection. I loved seeing some of the side stories in the shocking, amazingly written UnWind World. Each story was so poignant and great. I especially loved reading the story behind Lev's first visit to the ChanceFolk reservation and Wil's taking. These were all fantastic, I hope Neal Shusterman will bring even more to this series, it's one I am certainly not ready be done with, and I don't think I ever will be.

I really really enjoyed revisiting this horrifying world. It made me want to reread the series. And you know, maybe I will. The Unwind Dystology is probably in my top 5 series conclusions. With this collection, I, of course, like some stories more than others, but the only thing I can complain about is that the stories weren't arranged in chronological order. Also, that ending was almost a cliffhanger and I need resolution!

Overall, this was great and I'm sad that it's over.
