I just finished this and I can't wait to get my nose into the next one!! As far as characters go, I still love Cassie the most. I like watching her walk through whether or not to trust Evan. It is a very human concept and at the beginning of the book she was dead set on trusting no one. I like how this character is developing.
The only character I'm really having a hard time relating to is Ringer. I like her character well enough, but I don't think I've been given enough details about her to really "get" her. Hopefully that makes sense! :)
I can't wait to watch the movie and see what they've done. It should be really interesting because of the constant switching of viewpoints in the book... I'm wondering if they'll try and accomplish that feel.

By far my favorite character is Cassie. I really like Even tho. Yet another fictional bae. I like how all the characters are developing and we can see inside their mind kind of. Super excited for the movie. I hope it's just as good as the book.
I've always believed that Cassie is my favorite character and that still holds true. I also really like Ringer for some reason, mostly because she's just this really tough girl that doesn't take crap from anyone. She doesn't allow anyone to take her for granted, and she can hold her own with the rest of the recruits. Like they mentioned in the book, it's like they named her Ringer for a reason. I wish we knew what her real name was, what her life was like before she became Ringer, but I think not knowing also adds a little mystery to her that I can really appreciate.
It's such a strong ending to the book, I love it when all the characters you've been routing for finally come together (well, mostly). It definitely makes you want to pick up the second book and makes you want to relive it all through the movie. I don't have a favourite character in this book, they're all pretty great in their own way.
I finished this book and was so pleased to have read it.Throughout it all I've really liked Cassie's strong, plucky nature. I also like the way we see her insecurities and her developing relationship with Evan (should or shouldn't she trust him).
One person I'd still like to learn more about and see how things are affecting him, is Nugget. I'd really like to see how events are affecting such a young mind.
Can't wait to start reading the next book.
Let's begin our discussion for parts 6-8. Just join in on the discussion when you get there, we love to hear your thoughts!
Something to talk about:
How are you feeling about our main characters? Cassie, Evan Walker, Zombie (Ben Parish), Nugget (Sams),and Ringer? We are getting to know everyone a lot better now. Are there characters you are relating with or characters you just can't stand?
