Goodreads Summary:

From author Andrew Fukuda comes The Trap, the explosive finale to The Hunt trilogy—perfect for fans of The Hunger Games!

After barely escaping the Mission alive, Gene and Sissy face an impossible task: staying alive long enough to stop an entire world bent on their destruction. Bound on a train heading into the unknown with the surviving Mission girls, Gene, Sissy, David, and Epap must stick together and use everything they have to protect each other and their only hope: the cure that will turn the blood-thirsty creatures around them into humans again. Now that they know how to reverse the virus, Gene and Sissy have one final chance to save those they love and create a better life for themselves. But as they struggle to get there, Gene's mission sets him on a crash course with Ashley June, his first love . . . and his deadliest enemy.

My Thoughts

The cliffhanger from The Prey led me to immediately move in to The Trap.  After all, why shouldn't I just go ahead and finish the series up? This was the cruelest book in the series. The things that Gene and Sissy had to go do and the deaths! It was just heartbreaking. Also, I totally didn't expect that ending. I loved the unique spin that Fuduka put on his story. It really made me stop and think. This is a very interesting series that left me with things to think about. Wish I could go in to more details but I'm afraid of spoiling the ending.
