In Ember’s
concluding adventure, both she and her love interest, Chase are on the run,
along with a group of friends. They find the safe house burned and they are
exploring for survivors or more of the resistance, called Three. When they
finally find sanctuary they must put themselves in danger once again. Chase as
a soldier, and Ember with a bold plan to ignite the rebellion in the fearful
population. Will their trust in the wrong people be their undoing or can a
small group with a cause make a big difference?
I can’t say I
have changed my opinion much on the character of Ember. I still think she is
boring and I find myself having a difficult time caring as to the outcome of
her story. Yet I think the Dystopian genre is popular and this is a decently
paced and well thought out story. I will warn that the cheesy romance come to a
point that might be a no-go for your school library. (condom use, loss of virginity, etc).
