This book was amazing leading to the main event of the whole series. In earlier books we've seen only small wars where the leader dies and it's over with only a few deaths. In this book Rick has lost so many friends to this guy named Negan and is bringing together other groups to stop this psychopath and the war is only just beginning. We'll find out in the next book if these 3 small groups can fend off against Negan

Continued reading this book while reading the Walking Dead, coming back to this book is great when the comedy in it kept going from O.K to good. It's basically the nerdiest looking guys in the school wanna see a real girl naked by the end of the school year and they have gotten desperate doing that. Only one month to go and only one of the 4 teens has actually gotten a date that lasted longer than a week. He'll fail.

I'm a bit shocked with this book compared to the last few. Warning, spoilers ahead. Two of my favorite characters have died in this book. It's not often when a character I like dies but this book already 2 and both my favorite and the longest known characters in the book. Glen and Abraham. Glen has been around since the first book so why did he have to die just when his character started showing more that before.

One line that really stuck with me is "I can't believe it took me this long to realize this. After so long, being driven from one place to the next... I noticed, it was always people that was the problem" I stuck with me because this was said by a character in the graph novel "The Walking Dead" by a character that has always put his life in danger to save others and never only thinks about himself.

I found this book very shocking, the main character "Natsu" had a major freak out over the death of someone his friend knew for a long time. He risked eating something that has a 98% chance of poisoning and killing him but he pulled through it and I was shocked that someone like him all of a sudden got so angry. Normally he's excited to fight someone stronger than himself but this is something else.

So we're at the point where Coop is still trying to find a way to get with Kelly. Coop has talked to her but lets just say he's not very good at talking to girls. So other than Coop getting to know Kelly, he's still trying to do more sports to be the jock Kelly might like but Coop just doesn't seem to be good at any of the sports he tries.

The main character Coop has set a goal to see a naked girl by the end of the summer, by far he sees himself as the weirdest, and least attractive guy in his school but still plans with his friends to achieve their goals. Coop right now is trying to find the guts to be able to talk to this girl he finds attractive named Kelly. Even though his friends say he has no chance getting with her.
