Shawn and the mom irk me so much, especially the mom. I can see Shawn hating Ashley, especially if he caught her cheating but why is the mom so bitter.. but IAN IS FABULOUS. :D
Great job rescuing Bryce and Ashley, Ian! As for Jason and Shawn, however, I continue to detest them both. I wish those two could get shot and just die or something... but at least the new doctor character, Chris, seems to be cool. It'll be interesting to have him in the book. And I really like how his explanations about the plague started based off an actual thing; I think it makes the book much easier to imagine when something realistic is part of it like that.
I love the creativity and imagination behind this story. All of us love the book because it pulls us in and makes us want to read more. It is the best book I have ever read
