Rendition Supposing Books Infinity (Num8ers #3)
I wasn't looking forward to reading this conclusion to the series before I opened up the first page and saw an interesting little note from the publisher. It summed up for me what this series has been trying to say all along in a few succinct sentences: "Actually, it's not about dying; it's about how to live with the knowledge. That's the secret - and it takes a rather terrifying last twist in this final book. Don't close your eyes." Sounds pretty cool, right? I need to make a point to all you readers who might stumble across this review and be put off by the 3 stars and some of the things I'm going to have to say further on. It's this: if you have read and enjoyed the other books in the Numbers trilogy, then you should definitely read this! It has many faults that I will highlight and I thought it somewhat anticlimatic... but it's still the conclusion that this series needs. It wasn't as good as I'd hoped for, especially after having my mind and emotions thrown all over the place in the previous installments, but it wasn't bad enough not to read. I found that, ultimately, far less happened in this final book. The novel is considerably smaller in size (about 100 pages shorter) and it read a bit like a tying up of loose ends - in fact, that's what it was. There was a story but it was less dramatic and less meaningful than what happened in books 1 and 2. I do wonder if I'd have liked it better had I not been on an expectation high following the conclusion of book 2. Book 2 was very fast-paced and I wanted the conclusion to be just as wildly entertaining, but the pacing wasn't as good. I'd also ask that if anyone else here reads the book, please could you tell me what the twist is that the publisher mentions in the foreword. I kept waiting and waiting up until the last minute to be dramatically surprised in a way that would throw me completely off course and make me think "wow". I must have missed it somewhere along the way because I honestly can't think what it could be. Some help please? There is a very important occurrence at the end that I'm glad happened. It just served to reiterate the overall message of this series - which isn't a big political statement, but a reminder that any day could be our last and the one that really counts is the one you're living in.

This was a little disappointing.I'm not going to bother reviewing this one on the blog because it's the last book in a series and I didn't review the first two novels because I read them such a LOOOONNGGGG time ago!Numbers Infinity started off well, it was fast paced, intriguing and so much fun to return to a world I loved in my teens. While I ultimately enjoyed it, the story started to drag at the midway point and became quite repetitive as if the author was trying to find ways to draw it outIn the book Numbers Infinity, Adam a 17 year old boy can see the death dates of everyone when he looks into their eyes. Adams girlfriend, Sarah has a daughter Mia and a baby girl on the way. My favorite part is when Saul switches numbers with Sarah. I recommend this book to anyone who likes fantasy and adventure.

I found the characters frustrating. I find that with teen fiction the authors don't like the kids to do anything that's "really not nice" like killing someone, even if they are threatening you, or your loved ones and they know the threatener doesn't bluff. At which point, whatever solution the author comes up with for this problem ends up being kind of lame, and doesn't work. So the best solution would be, don't put your characters in these types of positions. Gone, Hunger and Lies by Micheal
My review:The insanely awesome people at ChickenHouse Publishing sent me this book alongside another one and while this was the 3rd in a series that I hadnt yet read, I rushed to a friend who had copies of the first two books. The blurb was awesome that I knew I had to read this series. So armed with the other 2 books which I devoured (reviews for them coming soon) I move onto the 3rd book and heres what I thought ;) Analysis of plot:Often people complain that the following books to a series are
2.5 starsSince The Chaos, Sarah, Adam, Mia and Sarahs brothers have been traveling from place to place trying to avoid people who might want to take advantage of Adams ability to see the death date of anyone he looks at. Because Adam and Mia are both tagged with tracking chips, they are in real danger of being found. Though they are thankful that Mia is still alive, they still cant figure out how she ended up with Nans number and survived the fire at Sarahs parents house (at the conclusion of
