In the concluding book in the otherworldly Taking trilogy, Kyra struggles to understand who she is as she races to save the world from complete destruction. Ever since Kyra was abducted by aliens and then returned to earth, she has known there was something different about her. Now she knows the she is an alien too. Her alien captors replaced all her human DNA with their own—gifting her with supernatural powers like incredible healing, enhanced eyesight, and telekinesis. But when she's captured by an unexpected enemy, Kyra begins to wonder if her abilities are also a curse. And is she, as her enemies believe, meant to play some key role in helping an impending alien invasion? Is it programmed into her, something inescapable? Or can she fight that destiny? No matter what the truth is, Kyra is sure of one She just rescued the love of her life, Tyler, and she is not going to stand by and let anyone hurt him or her friends. Whatever it takes, Kyra will do everything in her power to save the world…even if it means making the ultimate sacrifice.
My Review:
I loved reading this book! I love her writing, and I love this series, and I had to reread the first 2 books before I could pick this one up, and I'm glad I did, this was an amazing end to the series! I had such a blast reading it!
The threat of an alien invasion, with the Returned probably playing a role, yeah, that's a complicated situation. Because humanity isn't all that great sometimes, and the way that she's treated, I can understand, she's not quite human anymore, but she once was, and that kind of attitude is more likely to make her side with the aliens then with humanity.
Honestly, I didn't know how they were going to deal with everything going on. All the stakes were built up in the first two books, and now the threat is looming large. It was hard to know what to do, who to trust, and I had such a great time watching Kyra work through it.
The way that it wrapped up was so good! I don't quite know how it all worked out, but I'm not asking questions, because I'm satisfied with how it worked out. Though I am sad to say goodbye to these characters, I had a great time reading about them!
Loved reading this book and I can't wait to read more by Kimberly Derting!
