It was worth the wait.
Oh my gosh. That's all I really have to say. This book was brilliant. It was a perfect yet terrible ending. It made me cry and hope for some silly magic twist. Which never happened by the way. The character that die, stay dead. And the author is not afraid to kill off characters. I'm so glad this series ended the way it did. So many dystopia books try to have a happy ending where the world is perfect. That's too unrealistic though.This book finished realistically and I really admire Veronica for that. It was still a typical dystopia book in the way that everything leads up to a big rebellion against the government, but the comparisons stop there.
Talking about the characters for this book is hard for me because for some reason I'm not as attached to them as I usually would be. The characters are great though, they develop nicely and have good and bad qualities which makes up the perfect character. I just wasn't attached to them. Maybe because I respect them instead of absolutely adore them? It's very possible. This aren't the fall in love kind of characters. They just aren't.
I don't know what else to say except that I am incredibly happy with how this turned out. Well done Veronica Roth.
