What were your initial thoughts on the book?
When I first picked up
the book, I didn’t even get a proper look at it before I immediately stared
reading it. The second book had left me wanting more and even before reading
the first page I knew that I would love it. I read the blurb and loved it even
more and I couldn’t wait for Ruby to set the kids in the rehabilitation camps
free. As soon as I finished reading the blurb I opened to the first page and
read and read until I was practically through the whole book. I found that the more
I read the more interesting and fascinating the book got, I was very surprised
at some parts of the book and found that I was very curious at how the book
would end because of the obstacles that kept getting in her way.
Who was your favourite character and why?
My favourite character was Ruby because of her
determination, she wanted to free the camps especially Thurmond. She was set on
feeing the camps and a bit stubborn about it, she didn’t care how hard it was
going to be, she had decided to free Thurmond and would do anything to make it
successful. I also liked that even though she was serious about Thurmond she
still cared about her friends and didn’t want anything to happen to them. I
found that she was also very brave and although she would do anything to help
the camp hit, she didn’t want to risk anyone’s life so when someone had to go
in the inside of Thurmond and do the impossible, she wouldn’t let anyone else be
that person and did everything she could to be the one to do it. She cared
about everyone and really wanted to help her old campmates get the freedom the
deserved as she felt guilty of leaving them and wanted to make things right
with her old friends.
What was your favourite part of the book and
why?
My favourite part in
the book was the escape from Thurmond. It is my favourite part because this had
been what Ruby had been working towards throughout the book and pretty much the
whole series, as it freeing the rehabilitation camps had been mentioned ever
since the first book when they were at East River. When it finally happened I
found that I had been waiting for it to happen ever since I read the first book
and I was relieved that Ruby’s determination, hard work and suffering was
finally rewarded and everything she has done was worth something. I really like
this part specially the fact that it was raining, I loved that that when Ruby
entered Thurmond it had been raining and when she left it was also raining, it
was a great part of the book. Although this part was very happy, I found that
it was extremely sad because if this was what Ruby had been working towards
then maybe the forth book isn’t going to be as good., I know that there was
another book but I am worried about what it is going to be like and hope that I
like it just as much as the first three.
What was your overall impression of the book?
I absolutely loved the
book and found that a lot of the parts were amazing. I loved the ending and the
escape; they made the book seem absolutely perfect. Even though this book was
extraordinary, there were also some parts that I didn’t really like. I found
the death of one of the main characters very unnecessary and unexpected, as if
she had been told to add in a death to make the book more interesting. I got
this impression because once the character died, he was never mentioned again,
which I found very weird and I think that the book would have been better if he
hadn’t have died or if his death had some kind of meaning or been important and
mention later in the book. I know that there is another book so maybe his death
will be important or be mentioned in that book. As a whole the book was great
and if you don’t count the strange death, I think that it was perfect and it is
definitely one of my favourite books.
Which book did you like better, the first, the
second or the third?
My favourite book so
far is definitely this one; I think that this was the best book because of how
it ended. The first two have ended in cliff-hangers and although I found them
very intriguing and exciting, I am still not really a fan of them because I
find them annoying because if I don’t have time or don’t yet have the first
book so I can read it gets on my nerves and makes me need to read the next book.
I think that they were necessary in this book series but I prefer the ending of
the third book much more. I liked the ending a lot because of how happy it was,
it reminded me of the books that end in … and they lived happily ever after,
because Ruby’s adventure was finally complete. I also like it because it gave
the impression that there was more to it and that there was going to be another
book, and although I already knew that, I found it made me excited and very
curious at where Ruby would lead me next.
Would you recommend this book?
I would 110% recommend
this book to anyone, I think that it would be most suitable for children over
12 and that if you have read and hopefully enjoyed the first and second books
you should absolutely read this book and I am positive that you will love it.
Summarize the book in one sentence. (Verdict)
Another crazy and
dangerous adventure that everyone will love.
