Description We carved our names in the the fallen tree. Out tiny mark. Our proof that we still desired life. We would not go gently into that great night.

We were leaders, followers, warriors, even cowards. Some of us were betrayers.

There are no winners in this game.

But there is tomorrow.

Part from Dark Inside by Jeyn Roberts. It was a good book!! But it seriously scared the shit out of me. I was reading it while I was at my boyfriends house two nights ago and I was so scared I was like "IF THIS EVER HAPPENS WE HAVE TO MEET EACH OTHER AT SECRET BEACH OKAY" sob

but yeah, i liked the book, i couldn't really put it down. I also enjoyed all of the main characters, although they're all white as I realized when I was drawing them XD But some of them were Canadian! oh yeah!!

I liked Clementines POVs the best and can i just say that I kinda shipped Clementine and Michael laksdjfa i kinda feel like a loser like "jeez syd you know you don't have to ship EVERYTHING" but i can't help it!! when they meet, and he was like rubbing her feet and stuff eeeeps <3

i'll stop. anyway, BIG THANKS to Avery and Fellie for recommending it to me!! Go read this book!

Michael, Aries, Mason, and Clementine (c) Roberts

woah thats pretty cool!
and thanks!!

well i liked Clementine's POV cause i just felt like I related to her the most. I liked Aries, but I thought that she was a little boring, kind of your standard chick character. Clementine showed some weakness and she was trying to be brave for her Brother. I thought that it was really sweet. I liked the guys' too of course, I don't know I just found myself enjoying Clem's POVs more than the others.

haha i know XD no problem
oh, yeah, i can see that. i guess it's that too XD i didn't really relate to clementine at all XD yeah, i guess. i liked mason's best, i think. but relating to characters really makes you like them more, huh?

I'm dying. I can't believe you read it! It's so so so amazing, I knew you'd love it!
Arghh they look so perfect! They're all beat up and stuff <33 You paid so much attention to their designs omg Clem's even wearing the blue plaid shirt
I was so scared too because they're running around Vancouver for the entire thing and I was like "holy shit this is my city, guys. I know all these places and I'm going to die!"
I honestly ship everything in this book. Aries and Daniel, Clemintine and Michael... but my OTP will always be Mason and Chee whyyyohwhyyy?

Wow. Sorry. That was long. I just needed to get that out >.>

stkidd In reply to Xavryn [2012-07-15 21:53:13 +0000 UTC]

ahah yes i read it!! I went to chapters a couple days ago and saw it and just like read the first few pages and i was hooked! so i bought it (:

thanks a lot! hehe yes her plaid shirt, i remember reading it and thinking ooh i want a blue and green shirt that fits nicely too!!

omg that makes it so much cooler omg. yeah i was like yay! Canadian characters/settings woohoo!

yeah there were some cool pairings. I liked Clem and Michael, but Aries and Daniel i was meh about. (tbh i kind of was rooting for Jack and Aries hehe) and Mason and chee was sweet but i feel like we didn't get to see enough of them for me to love them together. I just thought it was kind of tragic.

but yeah thanks so much for recing it! i loved it (:

It's so easy to get pulled into that book! I'm dying for the second one to come out!!

Yeah, I think that's something everyone wants... especially if you're running from crazy almost-zombie people... >.>

It was awesome, but yeah, I freaked out a lot... WOOHOO CANADA.

Really? I honestly loved them. Okay... Jack and Aries is sooo cute too. I don't know... I just loved them, even though I guess you're right about not seeing enough of them. Oh well..

Oh, no problem! You've read all the other books I rec, and I thought this would be your kind of thing...

Whoa, I just realized they're all white, too...XD I totally ship Clem and Michael together, too! THEY MUST BE TOGETHER. I kinda ship Aries with either Jack or Mason, though, lol.

BUT THE KILLING AND THE BAGGERS AND OH MY GOD IT WAS JUST LIKE GAH WHAT IS HAPPENING?!?!?!

I also like how you made them look all beat up and bloody, lol. XD

stkidd In reply to fellie220 [2012-07-15 19:30:32 +0000 UTC]

RIGHT? i was like hmmm jack is cuteee and he was so nice to Aries!! Like he was so genuinely scared for her and he wanted to stand by her and he was so funny while Paul was kind of mysterious and dark ya know? and lol at the part where mason was like "this girls got guts" hahah

but yeah Clem and Michael <3 I really liked them, i thought it was sweet that they were like running from the baggers holding hands (wow that sounds bad haha)

IT WAS SO SCARY. i was pissing myself and when I was reading it in the middle of the night i was too scared to walk around my house lol

and thanks!! hehe i was trying really hard not to make their hair look pretty and washed cause that's how i always dry hair. Clementine's hair still looks better than anything my hair could ever look like heh oh well

and yeah they're all white!! From the beginning I imagined Aries asian for some reason, and it kind of stuck even when it mentioned half way through that she had auburn hair and green eyes.

wow long reply is long

fellie220 In reply to stkidd [2012-07-16 03:50:58 +0000 UTC]

I knooow! Jack would be perfect for Aries but then he got blind because of that stupid bagger (and is it bad that I think Jack should die now because he's going to slow the group down? XD I'm terrible, oh god) and Mason came into the group and was all "ARIES IS DA ONE FOR ME" loll. But I still like Aries and Jack together the most <3

I think in that situation, holding hands and running together is a given. Maybe. Lol. But it was cute, and plus they've traveled together for a long time and arghhh them together would make this series (not really but it would be pretty awesome) XD

Oh god, I know what you mean XDD I read it when I was at a hotel, but I read it at night and I swear, the noises coming from the hall were baggers oh god

You're welcome! And plus they've been on the run for like a month, lol. I think the hair looks awesome

Whoaaa asian Aries with white features lol. I thoughy maybe Mason was part Hispanic or something. I dunno haha
