This was a satisfying conclusion for the series. There were mysteries within mysteries, and it really kept my attention. The whole secret society thing is a bit much, but it works for a YA book. 

The series as a whole is a 4 star series.
It was a fun time. I loved Sloane. She's definitely the best character. Dean and Michael were a bit too tropey. Rich bad boy and bad boy from the wrong side of the tracks. Dean was kinda bland. I liked the Michael of the first two books, but he disappeared after Cassie didn't choose him. I still don't like Lia. Even with her back story, she is an awful person. Cassie was a fine narrator, just fine. 

The Inheritance Game series has been on my TBR. If it's just as twisty as this series, I'll be picking them up soon.
