The Way We Fall by Megan Crewe
3.0
I really hope this isn't the way we fall. But it's just so......possible.
We spend this book through the eyes of a young girl named Kaelyn. And she's writing in a journal - so this is the style of writing - to her best friend Leo. But they fought just before he left, and they haven't spoken since. And she misses him.
But it's in the journal entries, that we notice Kaelyn start to tell Leo what's going on on the island. A friend's strange dad saying crazy things and scratching uncontrollably. Then the friend, coughing and sneezing and itching....and then it really begins.
Although I found this pretty mellow in the world of apocalypse books, I like that about it. It's a lot to take in, the fall of mankind, and I like that it was more mellow than it could be. The horrors and frightening moments weren't always caught at first by Kaelyn and instead the reader is left with this sense of doom as each new scary moment unravels.
I will definitely read the rest of the series.
