Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Surprisingly great!

Great story, well-paced, good plot twists to keep the story moving along. I’m not normally a sci-fi reader but I really enjoyed this one! There were a few plot holes that would have ruined the story but I’m willing to suspend my disbelief for the sake of enjoying the book.

It's been 30 years and with rising temperatures melting icy mountain tops the previously frozen Willoughbys have thawed out and are about to return! From living legend and Newbery medalist Lois Lowry comes a hilarious sequel to New York Times best seller The Willoughbys.

If you enjoyed the Willoughbys, in all of its slightly macabre undertones and dry humor, this book is an incredible follow up; it’s both similar and distinctly different. It retains the comedic jabs at literary tropes, while at the same time offering more substance and complexity than the first.
As a quick note: the narrator did not bring the hilarious sarcasm the first guy did. She speaks in a rather condescending “I’m reading a children’s story” tone, and refused to stoop to actually sing “Let It Go” when brought up.
While the main characters are children, and the story is written for children, the true stars are all of the adult characters, which begs the question: who was this written for?
Adults in children’s stories are things to be rid of. Whether literally killing them off, as in the first book, or simply leaving the children as orphans, this book addresses the problem that many children’s books face: what about the parents? What about the fallout that all children face when left to deal with their emotions regarding evil parents?
The Poores are an incredible addition to the story. Disabled by their own poor choices, the author questions the reader in subtle yet clear tones: are you making choices that inhibit your own growth?
If the Willoughbys left anything to be desired, the author has put in an incredible amount of work to redeem anything that was broken in the first story. I applaud you, Lois Lowry, for recognizing that the first story was ever incomplete.

The capital has fallen. The Darkling rules Ravka from his shadow throne. Now the nation's fate rests with a broken Sun Summoner, a disgraced tracker, and the shattered remnants of a once-great magical army. Deep in an ancient network of tunnels and caverns, a weakened Alina must submit to the dubious protection of the Apparat and the zealots who worship her as a Saint. Yet her plans lie elsewhere, with the hunt for the elusive firebird and the hope that an outlaw prince still survives.

In general, not a fan of this series. Without giving anything away, I found the ending to have one predictable element, but there was another unpredictable twist that pleasantly surprised me. I’m surprised the author managed to surprise me at all, which makes me wonder if purely having the entire trilogy to reach the ending gave her enough time to examine how it would wrap up in a way that is fairly satisfying. I’m almost mad at how strong the ending was, considering there are other series I prefer *cough Jennifer Nielsen cough* that have lame conclusions.
Overall, because of that I gave this 3rd book an extra star over the other two.

This gem of a book contains the powerful principles of wealth building and has helped me with my own mindset toward money. Thinking outside the box and using my own creativity to make money work FOR me is what this book has challenged me with.
