Rezensionen für Die Ankunft - Cassia & Ky 3 (Ungekürzte Fassung)

[laurenkathryn · Bewertung: 2 von 5 Sternen]

1.5 stars. The reason it took me so long to finish? It was just mind-numbing! Nothing happened throughout about three quarters of the book and anything of any importance felt like it was crammed in as an afterthought.

Maybe I didn't appreciate it because I didn't enjoy it, but I don't appear to be the only disappointed reader.

Meh. The Rising has risen and it isn't exactly what everyone expected (surprise! (sarcasm)). This installment focuses on a plague and the way in which a bunch of idiot teenagers are able to successfully save the day despite a high-school level understanding of chemistry and biology. The ending fizzles out until there's just nothing. Very boring.

Great conclusion to the trilogy. Gave you a lot to think about and question throughout.

[ajsteadman · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Ah, another YA dystopian. I enjoyed Cassia's story and this one wrapped everything up neatly, though not nearly like certain other novels which shall not be mentioned here.

This was *everything* I wanted its ending to be.

For the longest time, in the first third I was walking around complaining to my inner critic about how ti was too easy. The whole revolution, the whole changeover of power. I was so so so disappointed with how that was handled that there was no way I was going to be able to rate this book above a three, even when everything else was top-notch work, writing, characterizations among the trio because that one thing was Too Big.

And then in the last third they jaw punch you with why it was so easy, after not handling it (through admittedly lovel level teenager's who wouldn't know or be told these things) and I literally may have consider calling for the smelling salts to swoon. It was so ruthlessly and brilliantly done. The reason. The rhyme. Everything.

I still love all three of these characters and it's the first book in a long time I think the three characters in it, in a triangle, honestly, deeply, truly saw, understood, and respected each other. I could totally write OT3 fic on these people, and I only minorly sigh at the eleventh hour, last minute, love interest wiggled in (even if both boys were given a secondary love interest, which was definitely....interesting).


Read it. I can't really saw much more with blatant spoilers. I am so pleased.

I found this book frustrated me to no end! It seemed so slowly painful as it developed three very different stories for the three main characters. I realize that this was important but I honestly almost stopped reading the book out of frustration.

When the action picked up it was great.

[completely_melanie · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

I loved this whole trilogy. I loved how all the relationships played out and who ended up with who. The Rising turned out to be no better than the Society and there sabotage plans majorly back fired. This is a war and unfortunately not everyone will make it out alive. I really liked how the whole story wrapped up. I thought it was great!

[hootowl1978-396919 · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

Just like the rest. Loved the finish to this story.

[melrailey-412132 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

After leaving Society to desperately seek The Rising, and each other, Cassia and Ky have found what they were looking for, but at the cost of losing each other yet again. Cassia is assigned undercover in Central city, Ky outside the borders, an airship pilot with Indie. Xander is a medic, with a secret. All too soon, everything shifts again.

Rating 2 stars.

Our attitude as readers really influences the way we experience a book. We can focus on the positives and ignore the not-so-good parts, as long as there is enough of good stuff to hold on to. It also helps to justify the time we invested into a book, especially if it's a part of a series.

I went into this with a completely positive mind, even though I knew it resembled [b:The Giver|3636|The Giver (The Giver, #1)|Lois Lowry|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1342493368l/3636._SY75_.jpg|2543234] from the blurb onwards. The first book in the series was beautifully written; lyrical, but well structured in terms of plot. It was really promising. The second suffered from the middle book syndrome, but it was gripping in some parts, even though it failed to deliver.

This last book, however, was a complete mess. I really wonder how any serious editor could let this go to print. It was too long, and so many characters are introduced at the end (even if they're mentioned before). The worst is that they are mostly dull and do not contribute to the plot. The plot itself turns into a bore. In the end so much is unanswered, but not in a good way that makes you wonder.
The end feels forced and uninspired. It just ruined the whole series for me. Honestly, I wish I had stopped reading after the first book.

This is the 3rd book in the Matched trilogy. Possible SPOILERS for the first two books… The Rising is taking over and is trying to cure all those who have become infected with the Society’s plague. Xander works as a medic, Ky as a pilot. Cassia is still working for the Society, as a sorter. I take too long in between books to remember what happened previously; these books were not great for recapping, so I have to just try to pick up and figure out what’s going on. Once I did, it was ok. I listened to the audio and parts kept my interest and other parts didn’t, so I did miss some things, but was able to follow the gist of what was happening. I think I had a similar reaction to the 2nd book, but I decided to finish the trilogy, so now I have.

[rdra1962 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

Once again - YA series where I really liked the first book, the second was ok and the third was a big let down. When one of your main characters (the 'bad" boy) is pretty much in a coma the whole time, the love triangle kinda loses it's steam! Meanwhile the big revolution is a big bore.

[indygo88 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

Book 3 in the Matched Series. The three main characters are each in a different location, undercover as part of The Rising and waiting for things to come to a head. There's a virus outbreak, then a mutation of the virus, and suddenly Cassia, Ky, & Xander are involved in trying to discover a cure. This was better than book two. I felt like there was actually some progression to the plot, but a bit unbelievable and farfetched at times, as well as being somewhat disjointed. The ending was a little too sappy and cliche'd, and there were some aspects of the plot that weren't hashed out very well. I stuck with this series because I had all three on audiobook, but overall it was just lukewarm for me.

[edensteffey · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Good. A little different than what I expected the 3rd novel in this series to be, but I thought it was a good ending to the series.

[anisadara36 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

This book was ok I liked the others in the series better. But the ending was ok but not really final for me to sad.

[emscape · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

The trilogy concludes with a race to cure the innocent citizens of a disease unleashed by the resistance but created by Society. Who is to blame for the deaths it causes? Who are the good guys and who are the bad? These are the questions our heroine, Cassia, struggles with as she and her friends try to find a place in the new order of things. A bit melodramatic and highly coincidental (really? a teenaged girl is the key to everything?), but that's to be expected of YA dystopian fiction. This is not the worst example of the genre I've read and it certainly kept me turning pages. The relationships were more realistic and well-developed than some I could name (*cough*Katniss & Peeta*cough*), but still pretty trope-y. It's possible that I'm being more critical than necessary because I'm mildly embarrassed to admit I enjoyed this series.

[emma_manolis · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

This series has been incredibly spotty for me. I didn't really like Matched, but some weird reason I went ahead and read Crossed. The weirdest part is that I actually really thought that was a great example of what to do in a second book of a trilogy. I was beyond excited to pick up Reached. Here's my biggest problem with this entire series. . . I HATE Cassia. I really do. It's hard to be invested in her because I think she is flighty, dense and somehow remains incredibly naive despite all of the crazy things she goes through. Xander though? I really, really like him. I was thrilled every time a Xander chapter came up. Xander chapters were intense and full of plot development. Cassia's were fluff that I just wanted to rip out and Ky. . .wait, who was Ky again? Kidding. He is just not memorable to me in the slightest and I don't even slightly understand the Ky appeal.

Overall this book wasn't terrible but it also wasn't anyway near all that I had hoped it would be. If you like Xander even just a little bit then you should read Reached. If not, then you really aren't missing out.

[myntop · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

What an exciting conclusion to this trilogy! I don't like to give spoilers in my reviews so bear with me as I try to explain how I loved this book without any...

Cassia, Ky, and Xander are all challenged in new ways even while they are all working toward similar things. We learn more about Cassia, and Ky, but I think we learn the most new things about Xander. We get to meet a few new characters, and unfortunately say goodbye to some of the previous ones. There's a race against time to fix what the Society and even the Rising has destroyed. It's sad, thrilling, nerve-wracking, and heart-wrenching. And in the end, we are left with a bit of closure, and a bit of wondering as to what the future of this world will hold.

[francinezane · Bewertung: 2 von 5 Sternen]

Need I say more?

The good news is the trilogy ends with Reached! I'm proud of Ally Condie for taking her characters through a wide spectrum of emotions and growth opportunities. I just wish I cared more by the end.

[lolakarns · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

Love elements of the first re-emerged in this conclusion, yet also that the story ended at a believable point.

[lauraodom-1 · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

I had high hopes for this one... I wanted it to wrap up all the loose ends that the other books left hanging, and it did. Condie is a wonderfully descriptive writer, and I found myself wanting to move slowly through this book because I wasn't ready for it to end. I loved the way it connected all the dots. Even though the love triangle (square--pentagon??) didn't end exactly how I had hoped, I could see how she chose to wrap things us was for the best. I loved the red garden day memory with Cassia's Grandfather, and how the "answer" came from her mother. Chapter 44 -- Wow. I won't say more, but wow! Such a powerful writing technique. Very unique. You'll have to read it for yourself and see.

This was definitely my favorite of the series. It seemed much more "meaty" than the others, and I loved the new characters like Anna and Oker. I felt like it was finally "bigger" than the relationship dilemma, and I loved all the little plot twists -- like just who was emptying Ky's medicine bag!

Would I recommend this to my BFF? Yes!
Would I recommend it to my teenage daughter? Absolutely! I'm trying to get her to read the whole series!

5 of 5 stars.

[hazysaffron · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

I liked this series but, after pages and pages of the plague ad nauseum the pay off at the end was a bit abrupt. I always kind hoped she would end up with her real love...

Still I loved the trilogy and would read it again.

[josp-7 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

These books are written very poetically, and for descriptive purposes it works well. This book is good, however, it lacked too much to be great. To me, it just seems that for some of the bigger, more important points in the book only the surface is touched. Instances could be grander and more explosive to show how relevant they are to not only the main characters in the book, but also to their society as a whole. The ending, for me, was just ok. Too much is left in the unknown to make me appreciate it.

[hannah7248 · Bewertung: 5 von 5 Sternen]

The ending is suspenfull for sure you want to know what happens to the people but will never it takes a bit to get over it sadly but #LOVEKYMARKHAM

[mirandalg14 · Bewertung: 3 von 5 Sternen]

It took me more than half the book to get into it but I did like the last third or so. Some things were too convenient though.

[csweder · Bewertung: 2 von 5 Sternen]

This might be the best I the three books...but the writing still feels forced and lacking.

[tmsaguid-1 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

This book ended as I expected it to. Which can sometimes be bad, but in this case was good. I like a happy ending now and then. It was definately a page-turner. I wanted to know how things worked out for each of the main characters. Although, there was some tragedy, which is to be expected, I am happy to say things worked out as they were meant to. I can't say much else without spoiling the book for others.

[laurat81 · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

After having a major disappointment from another trilogy ending, I was pleasantly surprised by Reached, the last of the Matched trilogy. After an underwhelming 2nd book, I was nervous, but Condie delivered the goods. The stakes are higher, lives are threatened, secrets are revealed, all that a trilogy should be. I had closure, but not everything is wrapped up too neatly because that would be too unbelievable for a dystopian. I just wish I could remember more details from the other two books. That is my only qualm with trilogies and series, the waiting between books really tests my memory. Anyways, if you like dystopian, romance inspired novels, read this trilogy.

[bonnie_ferrante · Bewertung: 4 von 5 Sternen]

A nice conclusion. Satisfying end to the trilogy.

[cfranson-1 · Bewertung: 2 von 5 Sternen]

Read this in audio format. Again this book was just okay. Still feel pretty indifferent and stopped caring for the characters and the story line.
