Oh yeah, not good

Finished - (view spoiler)[Pretty solid finale even though I was a bit less excited while reading this book. Maybe because I was never really scared that the main characters would die. I mean, after two books were they get an HEA even though it was near impossible, I didn't think the authors would choose to kill characters we loved. Yeah, I cried too for Aidan, so sad even though it's supposed to be a machine. I agree with one comment saying it would have been nice to have more backstory about Leanne but I get that it's not about her and more about the people caught in between. (hide spoiler)]

Yay! (view spoiler)[ I agree, I was more worried for the MCs in books 1 and 2. But I like how they all came together as friends. There's a little novella about Aidan before the Illuminae stuff happens if you want! (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I didn't know that! I would have read it if it happened after but I think I'm going to pass on this one :) Thanks for the info though (hide spoiler)]

25% (view spoiler)[ The miner sacrificing himself to slow production was so sad :( It kills me how many people die in this.

Crazy that Asha and Rhys used to date and have been reunited now. Super awkward... (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

31% (view spoiler)[ I always thought Garver was irritating, but this time around I'm understanding more where he's coming from and if Syra would have just made 10 minutes to hear him out, maybe things would have played out differently (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

46% "Every story needs its monster" what a tough scene

[Aly]

68% (view spoiler)[ I'm so glad Kady knows that Asha is okay. That's a ray of hope for sure.

Hanna's comic about her and Nik beating the mutineers was pretty funny and the audio had some great action movie type music. (hide spoiler)]

[Aly]

80% "They are not afraid. They should be." - scary AIDEN

[Aly]

100% (view spoiler)[ I love that Nik had a parachute and it ended up saving them. So much action at the end and I love it. It's sad that Kady thinks AIDEN is gone, but better that he's not in her life. At least he gets to go on and watch her. (hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Started this one tonight.

Thru page 157
(view spoiler)[
OMG Beitech killed so many people. That mass grave with 2k+ people was terrible. The miner blowing himself to slow things down was sad.

Asha and Rhys having dated and now being on opposite sides is interesting. I'm guessing Rhys isn't as involved in what happened as Asha assumes he is.

Oh no. Is AIDAN about to do what I think it's going to do?
(hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Thru page 279
(view spoiler)[
Yep, AIDAN did exactly what I thought it would. Damn, all those people.
(hide spoiler)]

[Melanie]

Thru page 429
(view spoiler)[
Well that was a short lived mutiny. AIDAN coming in and recking folks for threatening Kady.

Damn so much just happened. Rhys thinking Asha lied to him so he turned her in. Not good.

The big fight is here! Let's hope all of our group makes it.

Finished
(view spoiler)[
This was really good. I love that even in intense situations that Nik finds time for humor (also that parachute saving him and Ezra was great).
