The Ask and the Answer

4.5/5

THIS TRILOGY IS MY SHIT! While the beginning chapters felt a tad slow, Ness's masterful writing kept me completely engaged as the story didn't need constant action to be captivating. One of the things I loved most was the way story switched perspectives between Todd and Viola. It gave a well-rounded view of the story and let me connect with each character on a deeper level.

But oh man, Davy's death... Let's just say it hit me hard. Even now, I feel a hollowness inside. I will not be able to recover from it!

The final two chapters of the book were pure intensity! The way everything unfolded had me curling up while reading in bed. In fact, while reading that grand scene, I couldn't help but picture Denis Villeneuve bringing it to life on the big screen.

Overall, “The Ask and the Answer” was a haunting journey filled with well-developed characters and beautiful writing. I'm onto the final book in the trilogy and pretty sure it'll be the death of me.
