At first, I was disappointed in this book. It seems as if every dystopian novel has the exact same plot, but eventually this one managed to stand out on its own. By the end, I was completely emotionally invested - bawling my eyes out while driving to work, no less.

I'm definitely looking forward to the rest of the trilogy to find out if Lena and Alex are united and if they manage to make a difference in the world.

This one definitely wasn't as good as the first three in the series. New characters are the focus of the story and the world is completely different after Tally and Shay saved it.

Tally finally makes an appearance in the last half of the book, but she bears little to no resemblance to the Tally that we met and fell in love with in the first two books.
