Hunger by Michael Grant
4.0
The beginning of this novel made a huge impact in me. I didn’t expect it to start off that strong, but you know the FAYZ, anything can happen. I enjoyed this book so much, but the pacing for some reason felt slow to me. I couldn’t put down Gone (the first book in the series), but for Huger I felt more of an effort to keep reading. Nevertheless, the book is amazing. The plot and especially the final climax are so intense. Some times I forget that these are children we’re talking about.
As for characters, I love the development of the Coates freaks that live in Perdido Beach (Dekka, Brianna ‘The Breeze’, Computer Jack, and Taylor). I just feel like their loyalty and character defines so much of what will continue happening in the story, since they all got powers. Another character that surprised me was Zil, I hated him with my guts. Such a self-conscious character who rises to be a leader. That’s a recipe for disaster. And I can’t leave without praising Duck, we ADORE him.
Such a well thought out book, I’m loving this series. Would 100% recommend!
