Having finally returned to New York, Elizabeth finds herself still struggling to come to terms with Toad's death. Haunted everywhere she goes by reminders of her dead family, she finds refuge in a surprising place. But when people start dropping dead in the streets, Elizabeth and her new friends face the horrifying possibility that the zombie threat is far from over.
Meanwhile, Thomas makes an important decision. Finding nothing worth staying for in New York, he decides that it's finally time to go and search for his missing sister. Can he persuade Elizabeth to go with him? What dangers will he find once he hits the road? And will he finally find Martha waiting for him at the farm?

Days 195 to 202 is the title to Book #9 of the Mass Extinction Event series by Amy Cross. The apocalyptic event that caused the world to change was a virulent sickness purposely initiated via a deranged individual. Throughout the series, the reader has followed the stories of two disparate persons from two distinct places in the United States. Elizabeth and Thomas briefly met up after the battle in Boston but are now in New York and have gone their separate ways. Whereas Elizabeth remains in the city, hoping to assist with the rebuilding process, Thomas is convinced that he should return to Oklahoma with the hope of finding his sister. Meanwhile, although the survivors feel that they have reached a plateau of safety in this apocalyptic event, sadly the threat of zombies is still a very real pall that overshadows all that remains. Because much of what is occurring in this novel follows already established story arcs, it is important that a reader unfamiliar with the series should not read Days 195 to 202 as a standalone.
As I’ve been reading my way through this series I’ve been leaving reviews intermittently to let others know that I have continued to read and enjoy the series as well as using the reviews as a way to keep track of where I am since there are so many books in it. While I’m not fond of writing reviews I definitely appreciate reading them to assess not only if I want to read a book, especially if they are part of a series (which can both potentially be a pro and a con right from the get go in my opinion for many reasons), as feedback compared to my own experience, as well as an opportunity to either share my opinion of a book with an author (which I do enjoy if I truly enjoyed reading the book or found it to have had an actual impact on me) or fellow readers who have done the same prior to me reading it and hopefully returning the favour of a positive recommendation or possibly even a warning of why to avoid a book. In this particular instance I have continued to enjoy each book in this series as well as looked forward to the next. I’m not usually a fan of such a long series as many times the individual books are too small or the overall story feels like it’s being drawn out unnecessarily but I haven’t felt that way with this series. Amy Cross has written another great series and I can’t wait to see where she takes it next.
I can not wait for the next book to come out! Each book makes me more anxious to read the next. Any Cross paints a perfect picture with her words that will envelope you in the story as you read.
It's getting harder to tell the crazies from the "good guys". Most seem to be a bit of both. Backstory on some of the characters emerges. Wave 2 of the virus may be starting.
this series is quite enjoyable, this book being no exception. following Elizabeth and Thomas' story through the apocalypse, it is an easy book to read, and keeps me coming back.
Loved the whole series. Gutted that there's no.sign of the next.instalment . I loved getting to know the.main characters and.as for a zombie.book of was definitely told with.a.different perspective and that's what I loved it.had everything in it that u.could want.in a book. Suspense, love, hate, intrigue, jealousy and just the right amount of the dead eating people. I loved it.
Thoroughly enjoying following the characters in this series. Engaging plot with lots of unexpected twists and turns. Really looking forward to book 10!
.....part of the series is not as exciting as the previous parts, but after reading it, I suspect that it's a build up for the next book. It is still a good read but not as much action - more like a bad comedy and a worse love story!!!! LOL. But we have to read them all of we want to see what happens. I have a feeling that the next book will be full of action. You'll see why after you read this one!!!
Just when I was really getting into the book, it ends! Amy that is so not fair!! I knew it wasn’t over, to quote Rambo “nothing is really over!” Oh well, back to waiting for the next book in the series, exciting as they all are, I just wish they’d come faster, I’m not one known for my patience.
I don't know if the author has forgotten what she has written earlier in the book, or thinks her readers have, because certain events change in this series with no explanation. Also, I love the storyline, but this series needs to be edited for use of wrong words and misspelling.
