ashleybashley 's review for:
The Apocalypse of Elena Mendoza
by Shaun David Hutchinson
So. I really really really love Shaun David Hutchinson's writing style. I loved the premise of this book and I loved the characters and all of the diverse representation in here. Somehow, it all flowed really nicely together and never felt forced or like he put these characters in there solely for representation. They are just people, characters with diverse backgrounds who happen to be friends. Amazing.
I loved how sassy the characters were and, although they were frustrating at times, I still appreciated them and saw them for the flawed people that they were.
I didn't like it quite as much as We Are The Ants, but I still loved it nonetheless.
I think it was probably the ending that didn't hold as strong for me. I literally started reading into the acknowledgments before I realized I had just read the end of the book! Noooo.
The whole mystery in the beginning and middle of the book really carried my interest to the end. I just had to find out what was going on. Unfortunately, most of those questions I still carry today.
Anyway, it was still an amazing read despite all the unanswered questions I still have. And I will most definitely be reading whatever book he releases next. (Especially if)

Spoiler
Who were those dudes in suits? Where did all those people really go??? Who were the people with the voices?? Were they just people on the other side? How did they know so much? Why did they want them to leave? Is the world still going to end?? What's up with Sean? Is he just a shitty person? (I really thought he was going to do something commendable to come back in the end but instead, he literally kidnaps her!!!)Anyway, it was still an amazing read despite all the unanswered questions I still have.
