The plot twist towards the end could have been much better in my opinion, Parks really missed a trick.
Lexi has absolutely no backbone and just rolls with whatever Jake feels like doing. I just found the winning couple to be so stupid, especially Jake.
I think a lot of the story was obvious once you know the premise. Overall, not as great as I anticipated.
Would I recommend it? Probably as a quick and easy read when you haven't got the brain cells for anything too difficult.

Considered not finishing it several times. Especially when the premise was bent to the writers will just for the plot. Can't believe this is a series.
Something about Cassie felt wrong, she didn't feel like a girl to me and if I'd have read the book without the characters name, I would have thought she was male. Her monologues were dreary and sappy.
At least my short foray into sci-fi had once again proven I don't like this genre.

I love the characters, the setting, storyline and general zombie stupidity. I think there were a few plot holes that were filled hastily and it was interesting to see the twist on the usual zombies.
Long for what the story consists of.

I still HATE Rowan, he's so sappy and I hate the romance scenes with him involved. I don't know why but this character writing is wrong for his history and experience.
Plus I think the blood oath is just a farce at this point, used for a plot hole and show how powerful Caleana is but we know that from other things
