This time I was ready for the cliffhanger ending, but the nature of it still surprised me. I found this
installment more frustrating especially the first half when they were in Dr. Ritter's bunker. The author needed to show continuing evolution/development of the adolescents but it seemed to drag on so long. I could never figure why Esta had such a had such as bad attitude, and then she was kidnapped before we could find out or get any character development from her.
The two halves really felt like two different books, the bunker book and the part where Seth was on the lam with the kids who got left behind by awful circumstances, and for the girls it felt like one long bunker book. And nothing good ever happens when they go outside.
I can't say I'm "looking forward" to the conclusion, but I want to find out how it all comes out, even though my guts will be twisted the whole time.
