That last book was mind-blowing !! It was chaos from the very beginning until the end. It was a total rollercoaster of suspense, action, and angst. The tension between the characters was so intense it evoked palpable angst. I found myself holding my breath and my chest tightening during most parts in book 3. The ending was perfect but there‘s a small part of me that wishes there were more. I really loved this.

This was a superb ending to an amazing series. I love this series, I can‘t believe how long it took me to discover it. I‘m blown away with everything that happened in this series. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I technically finished, but I tried to listen to this today while cleaning and prepping food for a party and my mind kept wondering.
I think maybe I am just not smart enough for Ali Smith. The choppy sentence structure was difficult for me, and while I see her bigger argument I got very lost in the weeds.

This is no reflection on the book itself. Obviously she is a very popular and respected author. For sure a case of it's not you it's me.

BarbaraBB I found it hard to connect to those book too. 4h

4.5/5⭐️ (between very good and excellent)

I am glad I was impulsive and decided to read this. Once I started I couldn‘t stop. I am not really bothered by the lack of an ending. It seems to me that‘s what every character in the book is dealing with.

I‘m looking forward to the #LiteraryCrew discussion. @Librarybelle

I read his latest book so I searched out this one published in 2017. Probably written before the present regime in the US. A dystopian novel some of which could be possible and feels often a bit like today. Note to self, No more dystopian novels for a while. 😏.

BookishMarginalia Yeah, I can‘t handle dystopian novels right now 😵‍💫 1d

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it.

Filled with adventure surrounding survival. The mysteries messed up my mind of reality; I just kept reminding myself, there will be a logical explanation to all of this, and just as I figured the sci-fi element explained it at the end. The explanation wasn't a mind-blowing highlight. However, it feels like there are hidden layers to this which sparked my curiosity. This gave off the Maze Runner vibes.

Put in your library holds and interlibrary loans!

AllDebooks Honestly, I've been meaning to read this for ages but never picked it up. #SheSaid might be the motivational prompt I need. 4d
