I'm going to overview the whole series;
Generally the series is pretty good. This book is much more fast paced and it's a little bit darker. Despite the dysoptian setting, it's easy listening and it's kept me entertained on drives and through cleaning.
I feel like Piltcher didn't really have a good enough character development to really be felt as the baddie. At times, I actually found myself understanding much more where he was coming from than Evan.
Wayward pines as a place lacked so much development that I didn't really view it as an awful place to be. Logically I can understand that but like, I would have loved more development so that when there are people saying they would rather be dead than keep living in Wayward pines as it was it would feel more believable.
Also, I often don't read writing from male authors because they right women so out of whack. In this book we have a FC,choosing the person who she loves more than the person who loves her the most . Classic male author really to over romantise the idea of a woman's love being the most self rewarding thing. It just fell flat.
Lots of death and like, you don't know anybody so you don't really care.
Also, it's just not believable. A whole town being built in 14 years?
So ye, I didn't dislike the book, would maybe even recommend it for light reading but its not anything super remarkable.
