I felt as if this was a rather anticlimactic finish to such an amazing series. It didn’t feel as if the stakes were high and everything got resolved so fast. I get why Juliette thought of Anderson as attractive considering her past with Warner, but it’s still a bit weird. Especially how it’s just glossed over and never mentioned again. And her having her mind erased also had zero consequence at all and it pisses me off a bit ngl cuz all Warner had to was kiss her but like that’s not okay in terms of storytelling. Why even have that plot point of her not remembering for then to be resolved within 20 pages and with zero effort. Every villain died too easily and there wasn’t much of a fight at all, and that’s partly cuz none of the main characters ever die so I never got the feeling of the world ending. The book also never states how they took back control, how they were ruling the world or anything, it just ends with Juliette crying over a dog. There is no real finish as to what the state of the world is and I found it a bit disappointing. The epilogue- don’t even I can’t believe they couldn’t even get one happy moment- THEIR WEDDING DAY without something (Kenji) ruining it like bro they’ve been through so much just let them be happy for once.
Graphic: Confinement, Torture, and Murder
