Shades of Earth is the final installment in the Across the Universe trilogy by Beth Revis and it is definitely my favourite. All the pieces of the story come together and it felt much faster paced than Across the Universe and A Million Suns (not that I didn't enjoy them too). I think part of it is b...
This final installment is an intense commentary on slavery, greed and military involvement. It certainly makes you question why it seems to be part of the human condition to need to have control over each other, and control over what we do not understand. If our future was the one that Revis creat...
A great finish to this entertaining triology.It was so good, and then came the ending which, for me, was ridiculous and unrealistic. - I loved that the book picked up really fast, although when I got past the halfway point, I felt like it started going downhill a bit and I started to lose interest...

Taking our main characters out of the setting of the first two books was a risk that could have made the book suck and fall apart, but it was really necessary and I think it turned out splendidly.

"Don't you see? Those monsters you've been so worried about. Not aliens. People. The monsters have always been people."What a thrilling ride to Centauri-Earth and back! Not counting the hours I slept and I had breakfast I read the final volume of Beth Revis' Goodspeed trilogy in one go. I enjoyed it...
I understand that is classified as a YA series, but can we be done with three-way love triangles in these books? It's just tiring at this point. I felt once the relationship between Chris and Amy began, I lost any interest in the characters and just wanted the entire series to be over but I wanted t...

Unfort...
