The conclusion to this series came out in November and I finished it in January. I had been anticipating it for a while now and I was happy to finally get to it. This was Otherlife by Jason Segel and Kirsten Miller.
Synopsis: Simon, Kat, Busara, and Elvis are on the run with the tech super-villains at the Company hot on their heels. The new VR gaming experience the Company created, OtherEarth, will change how the world experiences video games. Paired with the hardware the Company developed, it has the potential to change the world as we know it, altering our reality forever.
The Company is on its way to becoming the world’s newest superpower. And Simon is determined to shut them down forever. But to do that, he’ll have to survive OtherLife–the next phase of gaming, and a complete reality reboot.
I started this series about 2 years ago when a friend bought me the first book for Christmas and told me that they had read it and really liked it. I began the series and really enjoyed the first two books. This one was still good but it just fell a little flat at the ending for me.
I was really hoping for this big ending after such an intense ride with the rest of the series and it ended up being pretty predictable. At times, I found it to be a little ridiculous and there were some plot holes that left me a little confused but it wasn’t bad enough to take away my enjoyment of the book.
That being said, I enjoyed coming back into this world and experiencing these characters again. It had been a while since I got to hear about Simon’s giant nose and Elvis’ comical commentary. They worked really well as a team to take on all the challenges thrown at them and do what was right.
Overall, it was a good series and I would read more books by these authors if they write more in the future.
Book Rating: 3.5/5

Disclaimer: I bought this book with my own money and read and reviewed it because I wanted to. I was in no way compensated for my review.
It’s the month of love and I have a new TBR pile to attempt to complete. None of them are romance books because I like to be different. Check out the TBR below!
I hate when the last book lets you down in a series, but, at least you got a conclusion to it! So yay for that lol
So true. At least I know how it ends and can move on with other books 🙂
It’s too bad it was a bit predictable. I’ve read the first book in this series and plan on continuing.
I would still recommend finishing it. It was definitely worth reading the whole series. I had just pumped it up im my mind a lot so my expectations were really high 😛
i didnt even realise this was a trilogy or that it was all out!! wow. im glad that even though you werent super in love with this book, you were still able to enjoy the series on a whole
Yep! I can now say I finished it and can move on with other series.
I haven’t read the series yet but I might as I heard good things about it. But it’s always sad to hear when the last book in a series lets you down. Great review! 🙂
