///ESPAÑOL///
2.5 en realidad.
Me chupan un huevo los Romeo y Julieta wannabe.

///ENGLISH///
2.5 actually.
I don't give a fuck about those wannabe Romeo and Juliet.

Nice to see mistress coyle isn’t all bad but I don’t feel that this added to much to the story.

This little story takes place just before the Spackle war.

At first I didn't even know what it was about, but about two or three pages in, everything became clear. Or at least almost.

I really enjoyed this novella and I think it's a nice addition to the whole trilogy.

It shows a quite different perspective that didn't seem to even be a possibility in the trilogy itself and I did like this perspective as a whole.

Nicely done, Patrick Ness!

4.5 stars.

Getting an extra glimpse into one of the characters I'm familiar with is a special treat. This short story also offers a story of love between species, one that I would wish was expanded into an entire novel.

This was very sweet and sad, and I'm happy Patrick thought of it because before this story I wouldn't of even thought of this possibility. It was really realistically portrayed of how people would react, yet it Declan and Ti felt so justified. Good work

Set before the final book in the Chaos Walking series, read after the last to fully complete the series, another nice short story in the Chaos Walking universe

This gave me an idea of what it was like when settlers first arrived on New World, and how they reacted to the Spackle. It was good, though not as interesting as the main books in my opinion. Very well written though!

I feel like this was my least favourite of all novellas as I just don't feel like it captured my attention overall. I did like to learn more about the spackle and their world. I do think that it gave me more context as a novella in the series as a whole.
