I mean, after all he’s been through, the final book in this series should be about Luke and Trey bravely leading their group to take a stand and spark the revolution. It really sucks, because after reading 4 books in the series just today, I’m now sitting here thinking ‘I read all of these books for THIS?’Ī huge portion of this book has Luke reverting back to his meek, ‘push me around and I won’t say a word’, spineless behavior.
I think I went into this book expecting a lot, and to be honest it was a big disappointment. I must admit I was growing a bit tired of the cat-and-mouse game by the 5th book, so I decided to skip over book 6 and just get to the ending! I’ve been waiting for these poor kids and their families and friends to finally be free, and for the repulsive form of government the country has to finally be overthrown. I really liked the concept for the series, and I enjoyed seeing it progress from different POV in each of the books. So, to finish off the dystopian challenge month, I tore through the Shaddow Children series by Haddix. Haddix and her husband, Doug, now live in Columbus, Ohio, with their two children. Her books have been honored with New York Times bestseller status, the International Reading Association’s Children’s Book Award American Library Association Best Book and Quick Pick for Reluctant Young Adult Readers notations and more than a dozen state reader’s choice awards.
She also wrote Into the Gauntlet, the tenth book in the 39 Clues series. Dunphrey Leaving Fishers Just Ella Turnabout Takeoffs and Landings The Girl with 500 Middle Names Because of Anya Escape from Memory Say What? The House on the Gulf Double Identity Dexter the Tough Uprising Palace of Mirrors Claim to Fame the Shadow Children series and the Missing series. She has since written more than 25 books for kids and teens, including Running Out of Time Don’t You Dare Read This, Mrs. Before her first book was published, she worked as a newspaper copy editor in Fort Wayne, Indiana a newspaper reporter in Indianapolis and a community college instructor and freelance writer in Danville, Illinois. She graduated from Miami University (of Ohio) with degrees in English/journalism, English/creative writing and history. Margaret Peterson Haddix grew up on a farm near Washington Court House, Ohio.
