The Atlas Complex

So much of the back and forth tit for tat dialogue in this one. Was okay in the first two books mixed with actual events going on but this was just exhausting honestly 

took a long time to finishdidn't expect it will end tragicallystill debating whether reading this series was worth my time or not

I'm still in shock at how this ended.Olivie Blake has been a favourite writer since I discovered her Dramione fanfiction a lifetime ago and I have known since then that she loves to put the reader through every emotion possible. The Atlas Complex is no exception and I knew without doubt I would devour the book and then sit in shock over everything.I was, of course, right.The Atlas Complex draws the series to its inevitable end and I was left shaken. There are deaths I wasn't ready for and I know without doubt; that people will be livid - the problem is, they make sense. I despised Atlas just as much as I have since encountering him in The Atlas Six and we were introduced to The Alexandrian Society.The book is very philosophical and makes you think as you go, I do think this is a genre of writing and thought. It may not be a book that gels with you, but if you do? Without a doubt, The Atlas Complex will have you thinking, and questioning not only what you read but the parallels to the world we're currently living in. The character arcs are ones that, especially in this book, are fast-paced and I was morbidly curious as to just how bad some of the supposedly good characters would go. Characters I grew to hate showed me just why that hatred was justified and I wished a certain former good girl turned into the epitome of evil, those I adored died and I had to stop and process that once again, Olivie Blake owed me a new heart and a fresh box of tissues for the tears.Why do you keep doing this to me - why do I let you? Please can you give us a HEA tale soon that won't turn me into a crying mess halfway through? I didn't want this to end, the book nearly broke me and yet I couldn't put it down. I can after reading Olivie's author note understand exactly what brought it all together and I think if you're even a little angry at the world we're living in? You will end up fascinated by the fictional world we were thrust into. Everything about The Atlas Complex was so well done, I liked each person's perspective, and how each and everyone showed their emotions, reactions etcetera as everything unfolds.
