    Great job on the suggestion on how to approach the book. Sometimes I feel books are sold to the wrong audience.
    Characters are important for me to enjoy the plot.
    Hope the next one is better for you. At least you enjoyed towards the end.

      Thanks. Stephen King has written stuff like that too but with him it seems more…acceptable? Somehow? I guess it’s because of the circumstances that made it seem so ridiculously unnecessary.

    The ruins had some hits but mostly misses for me. A lot of missed opportunities in my perspective

      @ you did not watch the trailer before reading the book, like I suggested?

      @ the tribe that lives there ,is there to protect the world from the plant. But if you pass them,you are not allowed to leave…because you will carry the seed to rest of the world. I don’t know why you didn’t like the book, The Troop novel cannot allow the kids survive because they will infect everybody else. That’s how it’s similar
