Trisha | 30284 comments OMG chapter 11. that did NOT just happen

ugh.

Trisha | 30284 comments and I'm done


I loved it! i can't wait to hear what you think Gisbelle!!!


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I love it so far! Too bad I haven't had much time to read lately. I'm in chapter 10.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Up until now, like you said, it's been pretty depressing :( I want to scream! It was gruesome when Dean killed whoever that guy was with a chainsaw. That compound is really turning type O people into animals.

It was a bit hard for me at first trying to remember all their names.

Trisha | 30284 comments I know, I liked the first chapter when he gave a run down of who was who and where
but I'm still don't remember all the kids or their ages perfectly :)

ugh, when Dean killed with the chainsaw.
so awful :*( I wanted to hug him!...well, after he wasnt all crazy anymore.....


Gisbelle | 25787 comments I'm in chapter 12. So in chapter 11, the compound made them sleep together?!?! And I think Jake is trouble that he's on drug again.


Gisbelle | 25787 comments It was kinda funny in a sad way when Alex thought about composting ... If the sun ever comes back, maybe this will be the best farmland ever.

Who wants compost from human bodies?


Gisbelle | 25787 comments In chapter 23. I had to stop last night when it got too emotional. I cried so hard! I'm finishing it soon :)


message 22: by Trisha, lives on coffee (new) - rated it 5 stars

Trisha | 30284 comments :) I hope that's because you love it!!!! :)


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Yes, I loved it so much! Just finished. It was epic :)

Trisha | 30284 comments wasn't it amazing!!!!

ugh, I Just LOVED IT!
the beginning was so hard, because they just seemed like they couldn't catch a break. one bad thing after another!!!

but then - it all started to work out.

I hate that group of rogues that took the bus and then attacked the group :(

and I hate that Dean still has nightmares
but I'm glad Astrid made the right choice :)


Gisbelle | 25787 comments Right! Is it weird that I enjoyed that book so much while it was so depressing??? At least I'm not the only one :D

I loved that something finally worked out for them. It was so heartbreaking that they had to face such hardship when they were just children.

Did you cry? I cried when Josie had to take off her mask to help Max (and a few more scenes). I hope she's going to be find.

Trisha | 30284 comments I didn't cry....but I almost did. I really did love it!!! So good!
Do you think there will be another book ?


Vicki (goodreadscomboobooper49) | 31156 comments I guess I'm a little late, huh? LOL

I am about 43% finished and it's really good!!! Just finished ch. 12.

I can't believe that those creeps took the bus from them!!! I don't know yet what happens to Brayden, but it's not looking good.

Also Dean and the chainsaw murder...gross! How does one live with something like that? Nightmares forever?

I'm at the point where Jake just got back and Dean and Astrid had sex...perfect timing! LOL
