This is a MUST READ!! I binge read the series and I suggest it to everyone. 11 out of 10! This is my fav book series of all time. Any thoughts?

OMG, I love it! It stuck with me for a while after I read it, especially certain scenes that are from the first person experience, but I don't want to spoil anything. I also love most of the books I read by this author.
I could not agree more, Bailey! It was so addictive and had a HUGE impact on my life! The scene that stuck with me the most was (⚠️SPOILER ALERT⚠️) when Roland was unwound and it was from his point of view this absolutely blew my mind! I had thought it had been brutal before!
Mod
That is the exact scene I was referencing! That stuck with me for a while because of how well written it was!!!! It actually made me feel panicked!!!!!!!
Yes!! I agree 1,000%!! Neal Shusterman did a FANTASTIC job of making a world and a sense of panic in distress in this dystopian society. I have a book signed by him and it is one of my most prized possessions! What characters did u prefer?
Mod
I really liked Lev. There were a lot of characters I liked, but for some reason he was my favorite! You?
If I had to go out of the big three, I would defiantly have to choose Lev! Risa was great too, but I wasn’t a huge fan of Connor. I just felt that his character was cliche… maybe it’s just me. My favorite SIDE character would have to go to Hayden Upchurn. He wasn’t in the books a lot, but his positive attitude and energy added a little something to the dark fantasy!
Ok… tbh I kind of wish this was a standalone… I started reading the second book and just COULD NOT! I didn’t get through it and it felt like it was unnecessary story.
Hmm… interesting 🤔 I’m not shaming you and I respect your opinion, but why? I REALLY enjoyed the whole series, though I think it could have been a GREAT standalone! The first one was defiantly the best out of the four, I agree with that. But why did you not like the second one?
Mod
I am also curious! I loved all four, but that's just my opinion. What didn't you like about the second one? Have you read any of his other series?
That’s what I’m thinking Bailey!! The first one was probably my favorite just because the story and plot started there. I also loved the second one, and the fourth one was CRAZY!!!
