Disclaimer: None! I got this book for my own amusement!
Synopsis: It’s been a year since a meteor collided with the moon, catastrophically altering the earth’s climate. For Miranda Evans, life as she knew it no longer exists. Her friends and neighbors are dead, the landscape is frozen, and food is increasingly scarce.
The struggle to survive intensifies when Miranda’s father and stepmother arrive with a baby and three strangers in tow. One of the newcomers is Alex Morales, and as Miranda’s complicated feelings for him turn to love, his plans for his future thwart their relationship. Then a devastating tornado hits the town of Howell, and Miranda makes a decision that will change their lives forever.
I don’t think I’ve ever read a series so fast in my life. I’m absolutely in love with this series. In this book we are reunited with both of our faves: Miranda and Alex and they are amazing. This book is still in diary format and Miranda is the voice. I thought the voice was authentic and the character development was well done for the most part. I also thought the pacing and plot were intriguing enough to keep me entertained and engaged throughout the book.
However, I did think that there was an over abundance of insta love and I didn’t feel like Alex was well written in this book. He felt really one dimensional, which is sad because he’s my favorite character of the whole series. Also, I think the book didn’t start at exactly the same place it left off from the first book and the book was a bit slow for the first 50ish pages.
Verdict: If you read the first two book you need to read this one too!
