oh dear. 
 what can I say about this book. I loved it. like absolutely love it. 
 I read this because supposedly I was going to watch the movie , but lol I didnt and now that I saw the rotten tomatoes score I dont think I will awk but anyways I ended up falling in love with the story. 
 This book has some cliches and it kind of somehow reminded me of the show falling skies but of course this is post apocalyptic alien invasion kind of stuff obviously is not going to be a grandiose new never ever told before story. 
 now I am a ho for all over the place metaphorical stuff in books and this one is full with it. i loved the writing style and Cassie was so well written. I loved how they kept us in suspense but you could imagine the plot, like hehehe. ALSO I LOVE EVAN. I JUST REALLY WANTD TO HUG HIM. BUT THEN ZOMBIE'S PLOTLINE was absolutely amazing. I really really really loved the characters. The kids were kids but at the same time you see how much stress they are under and how this modifies who they are and how they think.
