Honestly, this was an amazing ending to an amazing series. 💜💜💜
This was another absolute emotional roller coaster of a book. It was an epic journey. 
I loved the characters (expect Ben Garver, he was an asshole 90% of the time), the story, simply everything about this book and this series. It was so well crafted. 
Simply put: this was amazing and I loved it.

I loved this book. I thought that I wouldn't like it as much with it following new characters (to start with anyway) but I ended up loving them. 
It's the same nail biting, highstakes, tense sci-fi survival story as the first. Just over a much shorter period of time, days and hours instead of the months in the first book. 
Just as amazing as the first book if not better!😁

A really good conclusion to this duology! 👏 I loved reading about Valeria's decent into madness, the shift from subtly unhingedness to outright madness was so well done too I barely noticed to start with. 
Honestly, this was such a good duology and I loved reading it!
