The ending was pretty anticlimactic and very rushed, it felt as though in the last chapter it all just became a happy ending and there was no insight into what happened next

Also there were so many parts unfinished like Adam basically sold them all out and then they’re all just happy with him at the end? And also Warner basically saves Juliette from the reestablishment by kissing her like a fairytale

Pretty disappointed with the whole story and gutted I’ve spent so many hours reading this

i feel like the ending could have been done so differently and it felt a little bit rushed because it didn’t even feel like i was reading the last book of this series, something was just missing but i was still invested in the story and the plots but still not full 5 stars for me !

“You know my name,” he says softly. “You’ve always known me, love. I’ve always known you. And I’m so—I’m so desperately in love with you—” 2.5 ⭐️ I honestly don’t know where this book was headed to. The plot went crazy and it just felt poorly-written and I definitely consider it my least favorite out of the series. It felt anti-climactic and open-ended. My heart hurt for warnette and I legit thought they wouldn’t end up together because of the stress. There’s so many unanswered questions about The Reestablishment that I hope will get answered in the novella, but I wish this was resolved in a much better way. Nevertheless, I love these characters as much as I broke for them despite the frustrating turn the events went I almost burst a blood vessel.

Originally I wanted to rate this 4 stars, but now I want to give it a 3-3.5 rating due to lack of action building. A few major scenes felt anti-climatic to me when I expected to read a whole battle scene. The first scene I expected more from was Warner fighting Juliette and trying to get her back. It felt uncanny to read that Warner was fighting with Juliette, led her away to corner her, and then had a make-out session which was how he brought her back. The way he brought her back didn't seem fitting to me when I wanted to read a battle between them and Warner expressing his feelings for her to inspire a change in her mental state and bring various memories in and out of her mind that would lead to Juliette taking back her mind again. This change in the scene would've highlighted how difficult it would be for Juliette to get her mind back, considering that her mind was wavering for only brief moments throughout the entire book.

Another moment that felt very anticlimactic was how easily the Supreme Commanders were falling one by one. I understand that Juliette is meant to be an overpowered character, but there were moments where she was successfully subdued/contained for a few moments that rendered her powerless. That said, there could have been a more prolonged battle between her and Max. Max's character is not as strong as Evie's, but he was still willing to fight/contain Juliette to continue with Operation Synthesis. The battle could have lasted longer if the weapons imbued with Adam's power had been utilized more or on a larger scale. The book emphasized the urgency to prevent Adam's ability from being weaponized since all of their powers would be rendered useless. But Max and the rest of the scientists had successfully weaponized Adam's power (and Anderson injected a vile of it in his own body) that it felt disappointing that we didn't get to read how those weapons would have been strategically used against Juliette. Subduing Juliette's powers for even a limited of time would have allowed the readers to understand a new side to her and watch her excel in hand-to-hand combat.

While I do think the weapon wasn't used as much throughout the book due to their plan becoming more faulty from the time constraints and stress; it still felt upsetting not to read a proper fight scene that would have enhanced Juliette's character and brians. Overall, I still enjoyed the book but wished for more developed action scenes.

Absolutely amazing ending to the series. I wish she wouldn't have rushed the ending so much, I felt like there was a lot left unanswered. I wish we had gotten more from "Ella" at the end and seen what happened with Kenji and Nazeera. But overall, I think this became one of my favorite book series. Great read, so quick and easy to get immersed in. Love it! And Warner<3

But I know Warner wasn't trying to do anyone around here a favor. He doesn't give a shit about being a hero. He was only trying to save J's life.

alexys <3@alexys_nickole4

Maybe because the stakes were higher. Maybe because we've never lost J before. Maybe because I've never seen Warner this lost or this broken. Angry Warner was better than this. At least angry Warner had some fight left in him.

And then she turns to look at me, the animal still yipping in her ear, and I realize there are tears in her eyes. She is crying over a dog.

Juliette Ferrars, one of the most feared, most lauded heroes of our known world, is crying over a dog. Perhaps no one else would understand, but I know that this is the first time she’s ever held one.

“Where did they make you?”

He startles. I didn’t think he would startle. But when he turns to look at me, he seems confused.

I explain: “You are unusually beautiful.”

His eyes widen.

His lips part, press together, tremble into a curve that surprises me. Surprises him.

He smiles.

I stand stock-still for a moment, letting the shock of everything settle around me, and when it finally hits me that Nazeera is really here, really awake, really okay, I pull her into my arms. Her defensive posture melts away, and suddenly she’s just a girl—my girl—and happiness rockets through me. She’s not even close to being short, but in my arms, she feels small. Pocket-sized. Like she was always meant to fit here, against my chest.

It’s like heaven.

Warner is an immovable object.

“Fine,” Anderson says angrily. “Seize him.”

Six supreme guards begin advancing on Warner, and he doesn’t so much as flinch. I exchange glances with Winston and it’s enough; I throw my invisibility over Winston just as he throws his arms out, his ability to stretch his limbs knocking three of them to the ground. In the same moment, Haider pulls a machete from somewhere inside the bloodied chain mail he’s wearing under his coat, and tosses it to Warner, who drops the machine gun and catches the blade by the hilt without even looking.

A fucking machete.
