What can I say without giving away any spoilers?. This is the very last book in the series in the arc of a scythe. I definitely hope that there’s going to be another book because I wasn’t 100% satisfied with the ending however a lot of questions were answered and as always I was hooked and cannot put the book down. I think anyone who picks up this series would really enjoy it. It’s supposed to be a utopia which eventually becomes a dystopia and I think it has so much relevance to today in our society. It’s a YA book that I feel like I’m going to be recommending a lot to everyone I know.
