I LOVE Veronica Rossi's writing style. The way that she writes makes me re-read paragraphs and like all her quotes on Goodreads like an idiotic fan girl, which I have proudly been since I read and fell in love with Under the Never Sky. I've shared this book with all my friends and blackmailed my family into reading it. Since, this is the last book in the series, I felt extremely emotional and sad and the book itself did not help to keep these feelings at bay.

The world-building during the series, has been extremely undeveloped for a science fiction / dystopia novel, but for me it didn't matter. What the book lacks in world-building, it makes up for in its characters and their relationships. Every character, no matter how big or small their role was, had some sort of depth to their personality and are extremely difficult to forget.

I loved the romance between Aria and Perry. I totally ship them as a couple. They are so cute together, they care for each other and are willing to talk about their issues with each other. Every time they were together in the book, I had a stupid smile on my face because they are so perfect for each other.
Aria and Roar have an amazing friendship, where in Young Adult fiction it is unusual for a female character to have a strong friendship with a male character without it turning into a awkward love triangle, was extremely refreshing. Roar has been my favourite character throughout the series and because he is full of grief, Soren becomes the comic relief when the book becomes really sad.

This book tore at my heartstrings, kept my off the edge of my seat right until the last page and filled with characters that I couldn't help but love, others who I loved to hate and many who surprised me. So with sadness, I bid farewell to the Under the Never Sky series. Thank you for taking me on a wonderful journey.
