dark tense medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

2.0

Upon review, I realized I did read this book in middle school too! Completely forgot about it being the sequel to Generation Dead, I think I might have merged them together in my memory. But I actually like this one more than the first! It’s a little bit darker, more serious than the first and I appreciate that so much more than the cutesy high school drama of the first book.

And basically Tommyless! Not sure why he annoys me but he does. I also really hate love triangles sooo I basically ignored it in this (we’d all pick Adam anyways, right?).

Content Warnings

Graphic: Animal death, Ableism, Murder, Violence, Death, and Child death

Moderate: Abandonment, Animal death, Body horror, and Confinement

Minor: Sexual assault, Fire/Fire injury, Suicide, Religious bigotry, Police brutality, and Injury/Injury detail

All of these tw are VERY light, nothing goes into detail really. The SA is mentioned in passing, overheard from something and not talked about again. Fully pointless and unnecessary tbh.
