Contained Virus Book 3 edition by RJ Crayton Children eBooks
Interesting conclusion with one glaring plot hole. I'd be glad to share that hole if contacted, but won't ruin it for any other perspective reader.I wasn't encouraged by the first two books, but I had committed, so I finished. Other than the dwelling on a few minor issues and the one glaring plot hole, it wasn't a really bad series. I'd have been mad if I had paid the print price - but I was ok with paying the Kindle price.
Altogether 3 quick-read books - more for the tweener audience than for adults. We'll see what's next.

Contained Virus Book 3 edition by RJ Crayton Children eBooks Reviews
I was not disappointed in the third and last installment in the series except that it seemed to end too suddenly. I was immersed in the story and felt like the ending should have tied things up a bit.
The saga continues and the twists keep coming! The author had some really good ideas that could have been fleshed out more but all in all, it was a good tale. The one drawback for me was the epilogue. I hate short epilogues, they feel like the author got tired of the story but didn't want to totally leave the reader hanging. All in all, this was a fun read.
The characters in this series are believable and engaging. The premise is interesting and the story never stops. This is going to be a reread series; one I'm actually going to purchase and not just read on unlimited.
For the final installment of this series, we are in between two facilities. The one with Elaan's mother and brother, and the one where herself and Josh now are. A facility full of immunes with a President crazy enough to do experimentation on those that didn't quite fit the bill, all for 'God's plan'. It had a great start and lots of potential and I was quite excited to see where it went.
And it didn't entirely disappoint. There was some action that kept me reading, but a lot of the story for this book was a lot slower with more things just happening then things that they were doing to cause more of an action packed pace. It took me a lot longer to get through this book because of that, and I was saddened to still see the kids pondering over the mother's one lie. Seriously? Get over it! Still drove me crazy. And it was still quite vague on many details again, just like the second book. Still great though, just not up to par like many of the other dystopians I have read. Much more potential than it realized.
But all-in-all, I would still recommend this series to dystopian lovers, with those details in mind. Maybe you can look past some of the stuff and enjoy it. I mean, I still did enjoy it, but those things just bothered me. Would love to hear what others thought of this series though!
REVIEW
As I revealed at the end of my review of Exposed, I started reading this book straight away! I have really felt hooked all the way through these books. I'll be sad to come to the end of the last book.
The cover of this book looks quite stone like which does fit one of the settings in the book really well. The symbol appears once again, this time a brighter orange shade, does that indicate a possible vaccine or even a cure? The byline on this cover says "No place is safe" which again fits this book very well on more than one occasion.
In this book the teens are once again reunited and are with the person/woman their father sent them too, but once again they are being hunted down. What they had thought would be a safe place has once again been discovered. So now there is the person who their dad sent them to, a teenage friend the person has made called Amadu. It's the university that Amadu would have attended that they make for. The person/woman thinks she may have discovered the final missing element that James and Kingston have been missing in their efforts at making a vaccine. Before approaching the University they set up "camp" at the home of one of Amadu's tutors. Then go to the University. . . sadly someone seems to have pre-empted their journey and they soon find themselves captured. The person/woman soon reveals they have been caught by an old boyfriend of hers that still seems to be very obsessive over her. Can they use it to their advantage. Will Alex, the man in charge, be persuaded to allow them to hide in his underground complex or will he just hand them over to the government.
Sadly the immune Elaan and Josh (who on paper is logged as an immune due to false paperwork been done by Dr Kingston Wells) end up being sent to the Virginian complex that is under the direct rule of President Thoreaux. It is Thoreaux great plan to kill off any people that are carriers of the virus. Thoreaux wants a perfect, elite race. Hence the author comparing President Thoreaux to Dr Mengele. Thoreaux has a breeding plan which involves him wanting to "love" match immunes, then have them marry and reproduce. Eventually creating a healthy population. Which possibly may sound a good idea to some. One of the other things Thoreaux wants to implement is his very own version of religion too.
Once again it is Dr James Woodson trying to manouvre test results so that Elaan and Josh are "matched". It is Dr Kingston Wells that has this weird hate for Elaan. We never find out why he dislikes her so much. Unless it is that he thinks his son better, or a higher class person to Elaan. Dr Woodson's plan is scuppered but is soon back on track. If Elaan and Josh do escape the complex in Virginia it will be down to Elaan's father and not Josh's!
Whilst all this is going on for Elaan and Josh, Elijah is still trapped with the very woman his father sent them to thinking she could keep them safe. They are both still in the underground complex at the mercy of Alex. Alex's only weakness seems to be that he professes love for the woman he loved and lost all those years ago. Will that give her enough power over Alex to keep herself and Elijah free. It seems at one point she will not be able to keep Elijah safe when Alex has him locked up in quarantine. Will Alex send Elijah to be killed? Just when you think all is lost both the "woman" and Elijah get help from an unexpected source.
The author has written the characters so well that you can visualise them and you genuinely care about them. Even when Elijah is being obstinate, and not liking the person his father has sent him, Josh and Elaan to for safety. You can see the situation from both points of view. It's difficult to say much more about this book or series without spoiling the reading experience. I have honestly been hooked all the way through the whole series. I've loved both the pace and amount of action in this book. RJ Crayton created great characters such as the teenagers Elaan, Elijah, Josh, and Amadu. She also formed some brilliant adult characters, that you liked/loved and disliked/hated, such as liking Dr James Woodson and Nina (the generals wife). I enjoyed disliking Dr Kingston Wells and Alex, and of course hating President Thoreaux and his experimental basement. In fact there was a very relevant and realistic comparison of President Thoreaux (in the book) to Dr Mengele (who worked for Hitler and was a very real, destructive, twisted scientist that ordered, and took part in some horrific experiments). I could go on and on about this book, but as I've said I don't want to reveal spoilers that should be revealed slowly within the context of you reading the book/series.
So what was I thinking immediately upon finishing this book . . . Well my very first thought was when can I read the next one! Then realised this book was the, last, book! I honestly really, really, enjoyed reading this book, lots of edge of the seat moments. I guess you could look at the fact I still have a few questions about the characters within the book as the series ending badly as it was left 'unfinished' not 'totally resolved' but my opinion is I look on the fact I have a few questions still unanswered as the authors way of letting the individual reader come to their own conclusions.
In fact I thoroughly enjoyed the whole series. So much so I'd love there to be a spin off from this series, or an add on novella maybe to catch up with some of the characters of this series.
There is one thing for sure, I will be taking a close look at the other titles RJ Crayton has written and most likely adding most of them to my "must buy" list as well as my "must read" list.

Synopsis They said it was extremely hard to get. They said it wasn't airborne. They said there was nothing to fear. They were wrong. Seventeen-year-old Elaan Woodson was supposed to be one of the lucky ones. She got one of the few spots in the subterranean protection unit designed to keep select scientists, military officials and their families safe from the deadly virus ravaging the world above. But, how lucky are you really when the people in charge and those you love keep secrets from you? While Elaan has heard that what you don't know can't hurt you, she's beginning to think otherwise. And she should...
I had to end up DNF-ing this book because I just felt that the book moved too slowly for me and I just couldn’t connect with any of the characters. There was a lot going on in the book as well and in my opinion I just wouldn’t be happy with the book if I forced myself to continue it. Unfortunately I also requested the other books in this series so I’ll have to DNF them too.
Verdict DNFed
Interesting conclusion with one glaring plot hole. I'd be glad to share that hole if contacted, but won't ruin it for any other perspective reader.
I wasn't encouraged by the first two books, but I had committed, so I finished. Other than the dwelling on a few minor issues and the one glaring plot hole, it wasn't a really bad series. I'd have been mad if I had paid the print price - but I was ok with paying the price.
