Finished: The Bunker Book 3: Virginia by EJ Camacho
Ok, I will be honest, I skipped most of this book. I went straight to the end only so I could find out what happened. I was looking forward to the conclusion of this trilogy. I really enjoyed the first 2 volumes. But there has been a BIG break inbetween. And I think that break allowed me to actually focus on what was wrong with this book, rather than, oh gee I can't wait to see how this ends!
To put it simple, the writing is clunky, the characters are completely unbelievable and really, I found myself not giving a rats if they died or lived. At the end, predictably the evil Marzin died and the good guys (of the bunker) lived. Sorry for the spoiler, but geez that's just how apathetic I am to this story. That someone like Marzin could actually continue to do what he was doing under the corporate structure confounds me. I know it was the end of the world but I found myself thinking, really? Even with all that oversight in place they still allow him to do that? I'm the first person to tell others that you have to suspend reality, but some of these stories are just so far fetched even I can't do that.
I won't be reading the stand alones that follow this trilogy as honestly I just don't care.
Started: Call The Midwife by Jennifer Worth
