The girls make their final
stand in this third and final novel in the thrilling, subversive near-future
series from New York Times bestselling author Suzanne Young about a girls-only
private school that is far more than it appears to be.
There is no one who can save your rebel soul…
The girls of Innovations Academy escaped the confines of their unethical
school, fought against the system protecting predators who targeted girls for
harassment, and they’re not done yet. They’re still not free.
Reeling from one revelation after the next, Mena and her friends begin to
unwind the truth of their existence and, as a result, their destiny. The men
from Innovations Corporation still hunt them, the woman who created them still
wants control over them, and worst of all, Mena realizes that through all her pain,
all her tears, the world of men has not changed. There is no more time to hope
for the best. The girls know they are in a battle for their lives, a war for
their very existence.
The girls of Innovations Academy have sharpened their sticks to fight back,
they have fought for justice with blood from their razor hearts. And now, the
girls will choose their true nature...and how they define their rebel
souls.
My Review: What a dozy! This final book has nothing on the first two, ultimately the best in the series.
It is time, time to forget that the world can change and start fighting for their lives more than ever before. Now, there is a lost of running around for a while. This is where the girls split up and each go after an investor on their own and then meet back up.
Now all the investors have
been taken care of, with no any doing from the girls. The town is basically
gone and the school is no longer a thing to worry about. But how? How did all
these men turn up the way that they did and who did it? You do feel bad for
Jackson and his loss, it seems he just couldn't catch a break for a
moment.
So now what? The girls talk to Leandra and discuss what's going on. They are face to face with Anton again. They face the truth about the other girls. Kill Winston's mother and then that show down at the end with Winston himself and this is where you see Leandra sadness/pain shine through because of him and it makes you like her just a little more.
But the ending sealed it for me. Mena having made a huge sacrifice in an attempt to save herself and the girls. That was a heartfelt ending to read through and it's also where she and Jackson really shined and also these girls are now finally free.
