A big part of why I don't like this trilogy is I don't like the main characters. Cassia spends half her time going "oh, should I pick Ky or Xander?" We know there's a love triangle, it doesn't have to be mentioned 50 times xD
Indie was a really suspicious character. I didn't know what to make of her.
I swear nothing happened in this book. I gave a 5 minute summary of it to my friend, who hadn't read it yet, and with that information she was able to go onto Reached without any problems.
There were some great opportunities for conflict and excitement, I thought, but none of them happened.
Switching POVs is okay, but only if the author shows that the two characters think differently. Cassia and Ky both spent like 5 paragraphs describing the color of the leaves at one point.

The then and now confused me at times. This read was pretty good for me, but I don't really ship Lena and Julian. Also (view spoiler)[There was that really awkward part where Lena was showering and Julian like went to watch her.. that was honestly a little creepy to me (hide spoiler)]

Miss Perfection (Rachel) wrote: "Her husband/fiance was creepy..."

xD I agree with you on that point.

I agree with Rachel. No closure. I was rather disappointed with this book, I thought the first two were better. :/
