I just couldn't get into this book. I never give up on a book, but i can't read anymore. I am finding the dialect hard and it seems a bit all over the place....I might try again to read in the future

Had some pretty laugh out loud moments, but overall I really felt like this was more of a blog than a book. I overall didn’t care for it more than I did. I think I would much enjoy reading her blog instead.

I liked this a lot more than I thought I would. I was hooked after the first 30 or so pages.
The characters are great and there was a twist at the end I did not see coming.
Excited for the next one!

I have to say that I am not a huge fan of post-apocalyptic books but I was drawn to this as I have read some of Mr Hart’s work before and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised.

I feel like I'm disliking books more often then I like them. It is a great premise, but it just really dragged for me. I didn't care about a single character, and those I did care about weren't followed nearly enough. I can't honestly say that I enjoyed this book. It was a slog. It wasn't bad, but it really was not good.

I started to read the book but didn't finish in time for book club so I started reading something else. I finished the book by listening to the audio book. I enjoyed both.

I wish the rating was out of 10 because I'd give it a 3.5. Since it's out of 5, I guess it's closer to a 4 than a 3.

Album Favorite

" I love that album. I can listen to it as an album in its own right, and I don’t really have to necessarily think of it as a compilation album. I had all the Smiths albums when I was younger. I still have them, you know. … That was a great one. It just always put me in a good mood."

Kick A** Robot
Love this game!
I love this game as you never get bored of it! I love upgrading the Sanctuary and other areas. I like the fact that you can have a kick a** partner. I actually added a Mod and had attack dogs protecting my Sanctuary and safe places, I put a wall around the places for added security, and you can have a Mutant Hound as a pet (he is named Baskerville).

I was given this as a free e-book by the author in exchange for an honest review.

Right, first off, let me say as I always say when I rate a book 3 stars, that a 3 star review is NOT a bad thing! In fact, I'd recommend this book.

Okay, I had trouble getting into this book. I found it a bit too slow paced for my liking.

However, a little over half way through the book, I really started getting into it! It became super interesting!! I loved the whole volleyball game chapter. That one was probably my favourite!! I also liked the use of Latin phrases throughout the book.

The ending was really good as well. It was definitely a plot twist that I didn't see coming at all!!

I also want to mention that their were a few images in this book which I really enjoyed. They brought a little bit extra to the book, and I thought they were drawn really well. =)

This would make a great holiday/summer read =)

Definitely recommended!
