I guessed the ending halfway through but I had to read to see if I was right. Still many plot twists I didn't see coming!

As always - ridiculous, fun, and wholly unbelievable.

Just not as captivating as the previous books. I had a hard time finishing the book.

ehh...

Fairly uneventful climax. Fairly predictable. Not a groundbreaking announcement...

I’ll always enjoy the character of Landon and this book didn’t disappoint. It seems very timely for today’s world. Tech, fake news, fearful leaders, it’s all there.

Where do we come from? Where are we going?

It’s shorter chapters make the book feel like it’s moving fast yet it’s over 600 pages! While Brown is no master writer and there are definitely cracks in the facade of the story, it was still good entertainment.
