Reading Challenges: I Love Libraries; Seasonal Series - Finish a Trilogy

The outbreak has spread, tearing apart the foundations of society, as implanted tapeworms have turned their human hosts into a seemingly mindless mob. 

Sal and her family are trapped between bad and worse, and must find a way to compromise between the two sides of their nature before the battle becomes large enough to destroy humanity, and everything that humanity has built...including the chimera. 

The broken doors are closing. Can Sal make it home?

Such a great conclusion to this trilogy! I was so deeply invested in Sal and her fellow chimera. I couldn't wait to see how everything ended. Who would live? Who would die? What other surprises would we encounter along the way? I loved that we got to see less of Dr. Banks (seriously didn't care for him) and more of Fang and Fishy and Sherman. I loved the excerpts from diaries and autobiographies. I loved how most of the story focused on Sal as a narrator, but we did get some fun interludes featuring Sherman. Loved this series!
