It was a quite interesting and exciting book but I felt that the real world hype was just smudge into it and was just irrelevant making it seem the teenagers were still mainstream even tho they were disconnected from the outside world and while finding it ironic that while mainstream they we're all mostly religious, stereotypes but while at the time they were all in California where a diverse opened minded community where religion was dwindling and logic was thriving and evolution was aloud to be taught in schools and common sense found some ground with tolerance. 
 I felt bombarded with religious verses and kind of felt off beat at certain times reading the book as it felt the other previous books didn't dwell on the matter of faith and the known faces of today but survival and dealing with the out of this world problems within the FAYZ. 
 I look forward reading the next installments and reading more about this deep intriguing series that makes 'Lord of the Files' look like a cake walk.
