In The Afterlight by Alexandra Bracken
My rating: 5 of 5 stars
This is a satisfying conclusion to an excellent trilogy. I’ve read too many books lately where the characters fall just a bit flat, but these are the kind of characters I want to meet in person and have a long talk with. The plot is also excellent and action packed, and the book, overall, is very emotional.
