Another book that took me too long to start reading… I didn’t hate it, but I didn’t love it. It was right in the middle of okay. There were moments that brought me closer to loving it, but overall the book was so-so. It was an okay story, and I liked the characters, but not enough that I will probably continue the series. Will say, the movie was pretty different from the novel, so wouldn’t base your wanting to read the book on that! On to the next!

This was a very good read.
Initially, the POV change wasn't good and I didn't like Sammy's perspective but it got better and the author pulled it off well. I liked the writing afterwards.
The characters were okay. I loved Cassie in the beginning but then she became simply fucking rude and now I have mixed feelings. Evan was creepy initially but he grew on me. I didn't care for Zombie at all for a large part of the book (which sucked because I had to read over 60 pages of him continuously) but I started to care after Ringer showed up. I liked Ringer.
The comcept of the book is good and it's interesting. I did think that the romance part seemed a bit out-of-place and Cassie overblown crush on Ben didn't help.
Overall, I liked this book and I'm curious to see what will happen next.

Very cute. Interesting idea, but a little bit predictable. Loved the different characters in this story!

tbh i think the only reason I kept reading was for Ben and to see if he could get Ringer to smile haha

liked it a lot, but it was kind of predictable like when we find out evan is a silencer i guessed that immediately

Those three letters round it up nicely for this reader
I could see it, knew it was coming, knew it would be bad, I knew it. Reading this was like watching somebody walk though a foggy graveyard late at night while chains, screams and growls sound out around them. You sense it, they sense it but there is no other path. You watch as they get hit, beaten and scream for them to run, they try but where do they run too ? Who do they trust ? Omg, (deep breath) I never knew who exactly was bad, lying, loving, manipulating or human.
I read this without any knowledge of what it about, no expectations. I love the surprise especially when it is a good one. I was impressed with the characters the world building and the twisted bits the author ruthlessly threw in. I am left with one heck of a cliffhanger and a scream "Where is the shark who dreamed of being a man ?"
