Sounds about right XD

[Maddie]

XD 49% (view spoiler)[Holy shit AIDAN actually just did that?? Killed all those people! I mean, I'm on its side I think, really reminds me of The 100 right now, but still! And then Kady had to shut it down. No more AIDAN. I hope it's still around though. (hide spoiler)]

I know right! What gets me even more though was (view spoiler)[how Rhys' team killed that starving girl. Managed to survive for 7 months, means she's clearly resourceful, and they just kill her. (hide spoiler)]

You think so? I'm totally all for the decisions AIDAN makes. There's a lot of sense in it.

[Maddie]

XD All of my spam that no one knows where it came from because all of the spoilers can't be expanded XD Nice

[Maddie]

But if you can't tell, I've finished.

Review: Wooooweeeee the first half of this book really didn't do it for me but that last half!

What a mental ride!! I looove love that extra POV from Rhys, it just added so much to the story! For once a book in this series didn't confuse the crap out of me XD I loved the first one, really didn't understand the second, and loved the conclusion so thank gosh. By the end though I did just get over the double-page picture ones with words throughout the two pages. Got too confusing and I almost had to take a break because I just couldn't be bothered spinning the book around to read it. But I pushed through haha.
The inclusion of the authors as characters on those pages in the middle of the book was just totally genius! And how their nicknames were things to do with books they'd written :D I loooved that. And there was also a picture in the middle of a baby that was made up of a million faces. It sounds totally creepy but if you've read it you'll know what I mean. So incredible.
I found myself so much more invested in this one, the characters, the plot, the SHOCKS just killed me. I cried, I cracked up at the banter, I was so bloody angry at humanity, and just straight up pissed off at Garver. But I do think I'm one of the few who actually agree with AIDAN and am pleased with the acts it committed. I'm also the only one who views AIDAN to be a girl in my head XD As soon as an AI was introduced into the first book, I thought 'girl', and it just stuck. I couldn't swap around halfway through the series. It would be like a different character.
Anyway, review done XD Too long.
