The MC met his "fake boyfriend" and was NOT impressed. Found him to be a bit of a jerk. At first.

Josh and his friends are on the run, trying to reach the town's community center. Josh's emergency phone rings - it's his mom calling for him to come home. He makes the perilous journey only to find something even more terrible happening at home!

Josh has been proven correct! But in a deeply horrifying and bloody manner. Some of his friends, teachers and classmates have been either killed or turned. Josh and what's left of his "club" are on the run, but where to go?? No place is safe! And they have ineffective weapons.

Nickel & his mother have moved into the Beastly Arms apartments. But what is that terrible odor that permeates the building? Where is it coming from? And what caused Inez, Nickels' best friend, to cartwheel in front of a moving vehicle? Does Mr. Beastly really have a secret he's hiding and wants Nickel to discover? Answers to come..m

Good so far. The zombies have arrived!!!

Nickle and his Mother are soon moving into the Beastly Arms. But what is it about Mr. Beastly that peaks Nickle's interest? Is it the difference in the old mans' appearance each time Nickle sees him? The fact that the apartment building changes appearances aligned with Mr. Beastly's'? Nickle is ready to find out!

Just getting interesting. Nickel & his Mother are getting set to move into the Beastly Arms apartments.

So far, so likeable! Great start to this ebook.

A bit confused at this point as to why Scott wants to keep his ties with his "old gang" his mother wanted him so desperately to leave behind when they moved.

So far, very entertaining.

Definitely a middle grade book, but it stirs a sense of nostalgia for me. Parts remind me of my childhood (back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth) and brought back good and bad memories. Overall, an enjoyable read so far.

I didn't realize this was book 2, but I think it can be read as a standalone due to the author giving enough backstory.

A little confusing the prior 20 pages, but the author tied everything together nicely. Aaron had a procedure (I won't tell what is was or how it effected him; that would be a spoiler.) that didn't work and really messed him up psychologically. He ended up being thrown through a glass door and hospitalized. His ex-boyfriend, Thomas, visited and they both dared to admit feelings for one another. Wow!

Numerous plot twists occurred since I last updated my status.

Aaron, the MC, in order to not be a homosexual any longer, decides to have a procedure that will erase the memories of that portion of himself, plus any incidents involving his homosexuality. But is the procedure safe?? Some who have had it changed in unexpected ways that were less than desirable. (Like becoming brain dead). Will that be Aaron's fate?

A mind-numbing statement from Thomas sends our MC reeling and desperately alone.

The main protagonist just discovered something he'd been denying for awhile. With the help of a new friend, he discovered his sexuality leans toward other boys, not his girlfriend. (Or does it??)
I must state, however, that Mr. Silva - the author - presents this revelation with style, sensitivity and without disrupting the plot.

Well written novel that is holding my attention and making me turn the pages. Interesting characters, great plot development and smoothly written. Loving it so far!
