The One
by Kiera Cass
I'm glad I made it through this series, and while the end did tie everything up nicely, it honestly felt like a rush job. Maxon and America were fighting and going back and forth up until the VERY last possible moment. It resulted in Maxon declaring his undying love for America two minutes after saying he could t wait for her to leave.
My other problem was the rebels. This entire book it has felt like an unnecessary plot point. If something so serious is going to be written in, the characters needed to take it more seriously than "Oh look, rebels are breaking in left and right 3 times a week, guess we'll just have a lot of hiding spots." At this point I'm convinced the only reason they were there was so that they could CONVENIENTLY wipe out all obstacles to America and Maxons relationship (mainly the father). Only to be dealt with be the other band of good rebels.
Was the series good? Not really. Frustrating? Yes. Did I still cheer when they got their happily ever after? Also yes.
