(THERE WILL BE SPOILERS) 
 So the sequel to Wither. Let me start out with saying 1) I really like Wither, one of the best books I read last year 2) I am NOT normally a fan of this sort of book. In fact I hate that in every futuristic book there is a virus or plague that has wiped out humanity, or is close to it. I dislike this new trend almost as much as the now ever popular angels. 3) I really looked forward to this book coming out, bought it the day it was released. 
 Now with those things.... This book was a HUGE disappointment. I know it is called Fever, but really, did Rhine have to spend basically the WHOLE book sick? All she and Gabriel did was wine, get hurt, get sick, have nightmares and be filthy. So much of the book was devoted to her fever induced nightmares that the minimal pages the author spent actually talking about finding Rowan and her home was wasted because the main character could barely think long enough to formulate a plan. Plus Rhine was stupid, she did not think about her escape, didn't plan anything and didn't consider the consequences for her actions, which was ridiculously obvious. Pretty much there was maybe twenty pages of the book that actually moved the plot line along. 
 Basically it went like this: 
 1) Arrive on shore line 
 2) Get caught in scarlet district 
 3) Hallucinate and be sick until escape 
 4) Be sick in a van 
 5) Be sick and almost raped at a restaurant 
 6) Be sick and almost die at an orphanage 
 7) Get captured and taken back to Linden's 
 8) Be sick/have nightmares/hallucinate in the basement and be experimented on 
 9) Be rescued from basement by Linden 
 10) Be sick in the hospital and not have anyone believe you that Linden's dad is evil.. 
 The End 
 After reading Fever I will probably wait till the third comes out in paper back.... If I read it at all.
