So this is the final book in the MaddAddam trilogy. I was so-so on book 1, and I loved book 2. I felt like the second book tied together all of the crap you had to sit through in the first book. Then the third book ties it together even more, and even wraps everything up. Here are a few things I learned along the way, and stuff I took note of.

It didn’t really bother me though. I got caught up in the action and the stories. George Smiley has a lot of stories. This is the first book where Smiley appears. There’s apparently seven books with him as the main character. I like him. It’s really hard […]
