Have you started reading the book yet? I started this morning. I'm on page 112.

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

Nope, but I'll start soon

how was the first 100 pages??

[[deleted user]]

Oh it's great. So far better than the first one!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm starting now!!
I'll update soon

oooh! better than the first one!!?? Awesome!

Through Part I

I'm so sad (view spoiler)[ that Morgie left it like that. that's awful (hide spoiler)]

I'm glad that (view spoiler)[ Nix was finally ready to hear from Benny that he loved her (hide spoiler)]

Lilah(view spoiler)[ OMG! when she said Benny had been bit and had a knife to his throat?!?!?!!! I was so freaked! (hide spoiler)]

it's good so far!
I'll read more tomorrow!!

[[deleted user]]

I know!!!!

Though I feel Benny's frustration with Nix right now. I feel as though she's a little more harder to deal with than in the first book. It's understandable, given what she has been through but still, it makes her a harder character to like because even though she was finally able to hear that Benny loves her, she still deflects his affection and only wants it at, what I think, are inconvenient times.

Oh and I know... Morgie!!! Broke my heart to bits...

Tom keeps giving me mini heart attacks so far. I'm on page 206 and I'm like just stop!!! I'm gonna put you in a jar and keep you with me and you will never again kill me like you do!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

through Part II

UGH!!!

Brother Jack(view spoiler)[ yikes, he was creepy
what WAS his problem. I have a feeling he's with the other people trying to control the area....I have a feeling their are going to be running after Chong AND having to come back and save the town from the terror these other bounty hunters will be doing (hide spoiler)]

Chong(view spoiler)[ .....ARGH! What is he thinking?? he HAS to know that they are going to go after them! For all his worry about putting them in danger, HE'S MAKING IT WORSE!!! UGH! (hide spoiler)]

Lilah(view spoiler)[ she is seriously scary still lol (hide spoiler)]

empty cabin(view spoiler)[ i wonder where the monk and sisters went....why would they run? and take all their supplies? (hide spoiler)]

feeding(view spoiler)[ and good golly, WHY would someone feed a person to Walking Dead?!?

and....why didn't that guy turn? (hide spoiler)]

so many interesting things happening!!
I'll read more tomorrow!

I know!! he has to STOP putting himself in danger!!I can't believe Chong ran and he has to go after him :(

I'm on page 260, I'm at a point where I can't put this freaking book down. I feel like Nix and Lailah were being unfair to Benny before the attack. I feel like his outburst was justified by the frustration and they way they were treating him.

Right now, I'm just hoping they all live!!!!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm through Part III

OMG right?? I'm just hoping they all survive

Benny(view spoiler)[ His dream...where Nix changed. OMG. I thought Nix was gone. so glad she's okay (hide spoiler)]

shadow(view spoiler)[ but who is the guy following them??
this feels so...fixed...Like they are being forced apart and pushed to go east
and why remove the message? are they going to lie to Tom? (hide spoiler)]

animals / zoms (view spoiler)[ I also think it's weird all these animals have suddenly been around
think they converted the zoo to the new Gametown? (hide spoiler)]

Lilah(view spoiler)[ she is really cracking. it's awful :(
she is so strong, I hate that something has broken her.
I don't know if it's because someone loved her (Chong) or just breaking down her will
either way,I hope Greenman snaps her out of this (hide spoiler)]

Chong(view spoiler)[ he's going to live right? He's going to find warrior skills inside and kick some butt
at least, man, I hope he does.
Tom can't arrive only to find him dead (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

Oh poor Chong! Having to go through that!!!! I feel like the guy who is following Benny and Nix is going to be a bad guy, but since Lailah and The Greenman are not far behind, I feel as though they'll be ok, even though Lailah is a great mess.

I'm on page 340. I almost want to finish this book today but I'm not sure if I'll be able to since work keeps me busy and I won't get off until 3pm. But omg!!! I hope Tom makes it to someone before it's too late!!! Maybe Chong might be the new Tom!!! Who knows!!! So much suspense!!!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm thru Part IV

OMG ~ Chong!!! (view spoiler)[ he's been bitten?!?!! CRAP!!! somehow I want it not to be true! (hide spoiler)]

Lilah(view spoiler)[ so glad she's being taken care of....but they need her to come back REALLY soon or they all WILL be dead by the time she gets there! (hide spoiler)]

tom(view spoiler)[ I'm so worried about him :(
for some reason, I don't think he's going to make it out of all this
I think he's going to have to sacrifice himself to save them all (hide spoiler)]

Benny and Nix(view spoiler)[ what on EARTH were they doing digging in the wall??? (hide spoiler)]

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I'm done

HOLY MOLY that was good!!

Benny(view spoiler)[ I'm so sad he had to watch over Tom
but he didn't change....what does this mean??
(hide spoiler)]

Tom(view spoiler)[ so so sad....... (hide spoiler)]

Lilah(view spoiler)[ yay! she's back and kicking butt. I'm glad she shorted through all her stuff and got back out to them (hide spoiler)]

Chong(view spoiler)[ OMG I thought he was a goner!! SOOO glad he's still with them! (hide spoiler)]

[[deleted user]]

I finished yesterday. I spent all of yesterday and today mourning for my Tom. That hit me the most!!!!

[Trisha, lives on coffee]

I know!! :(
I can't believe he's gone........

[[deleted user]]

He was my most favorite character. Now Benny has no family. I kinda thought that some romance my happen between him and Sally. It was a shocker that he died and not someone else from the group...

[Trisha, lives on coffee]
