Smart plot with likable characters, even the evil ones. I cried a river when daddy lion sacrificed himself for his daughter. Damn you for making me cry in a horror read. I went back and forth hating then loving the main character. Even after finishing this, I am still conflicted. Excellent read....more
Rabbits is a secret underground game. You probably never heard of it except in whispers or on the dark web. No one knows who runs The Door Is Open
Rabbits is a secret underground game. You probably never heard of it except in whispers or on the dark web. No one knows who runs the game. In fact, you don't even know you're a player. All you have to do is see or hear the phrase "The Door is Open" to know a new game has begun. If you can find the patterns, uncover the clues, and can open your mind, the game might pick you. Dangers are everywhere. You might lose your life. However, the winner gets his/her heart's desire.
The last two games, something has been amiss. Now entering the 11th round since its conception, players are going missing. Bodies are being found murdered. The lines of reality are being blurred. K has to win the game before our world comes to an end. Or maybe it all is a figment of K's imagination.

Its mission is to destroy the earth and all living creatures to start anew. Abraham aka Science Guy survives the machine's birth from the ice to engage in a battle of survival.

Herold's disease sweeps the globe, killing all children that have not hit puberty. The world mourns as experts scramble to find out why. Three days laHerold's disease sweeps the globe, killing all children that have not hit puberty. The world mourns as experts scramble to find out why. Three days later mass graves are being filled, the children miraculously resurrect. Millions of children are suddenly "awake". No vital signs, smell of decay, skin gray, these children are shells of what they used to be. Only one thing brings them back to their former selves: blood. The blood lasts for only so long until more blood is needed to keep the children awake.
One fabulous bloody book. I love the different take on an apocalypse event using children as our downfall. Parents will fight to the end to make sure their child survives, even if that child is not really their child anymore. Recommend!...more

Definitely a unique take on the living dead and how we as a people address them. Out of all the situations I have read about, this seems to be the most realistic to me. Plenty of blood and gore to go around, but that ending is a tearjerker. Bring plenty of tissues!...more
Out of all the books I randomly picked up to read, I had to choose this one. The book with missiles and nukes being shot at the USA. Wonderful choice.Out of all the books I randomly picked up to read, I had to choose this one. The book with missiles and nukes being shot at the USA. Wonderful choice. McCammon came damn close to how I imagine nuclear winter would be like. The story is terrifying, but beautiful. The characters were well written. I could place myself inside the lines with them. This book will leave an impression on your soul. Highly recommend!...more

You're thinking, why would you give this amazing book three stars. Wait, hear me out on this one. Math....this book mathed so hard I was transported back to high school when I cried over equations having letters in them. Math and I have never been friends. At best, we are frenemies. I understand the need to explain some things to us readers, but I don't want to have ponder physics while reading a book. I found myself skimming over those parts because my eyes glazed over. That took the joy out of it for me. I loved the main character. I found him witty and fun. The plot was awesome. It was just having to skim so much over of the book that killed it....more
