Surprisingly Good!

This being the fourth book in the series, I remain impressed at how well the author is telling the overarching story, morphing it a little bit in each book but holding true to some core plot lines and character tenets. In the end, this is really one primary character’s story, with various others coming into and out of her circle. Yet Druga is able to elevate other characters at times, and bring us other distinct POVs, and I’ve appreciated her writing skill. Good stuff!

I’m kind of in shock that this book ended on a somewhat happy note. We lose more characters but minor this time but still painful given the age 😟 Heroine realizes she’s pregnant which is just the best thing in the apocalypse. To make matters even betterworse she’s having twins and her only remaining child is immune to the virus thus a government pawn. All this occurs because the heroine just can’t give up on the thought of making bonds with survivors. Considering the dead keep coming and the virus is adapting I wish they’d just stay place but then there’d be no story to tell. With one more I hope that finally things will start turning around and they can start living a somewhat normal life again!

This series should have stopped with the third book unless she is planning to write more. Lots of plots wholes left unanswered like ummm when did Nila and lev have sex? When he was dying? Why could her daughter see into the future but was all cryptic and weird about it instead of being like yo belle’s gonna die and try to eat her baby.
The ending was so boring I slept through it twice and had to listen to it again and I still for the life of me can’t remember what it’s about about because some long inter dialogue by Nila that answers nothing.
I did like the first book and then I was like what the hell the are 5 hours I can listen. I wish I hadn’t.

After a main character died in the previous book, I wasn't sure if I would struggle with this one or not, but it was still an enjoyable read.

The characters are written well, but Fleck is starting to get on my nerves. He likes to turn every conversation into a debate or an argument.

Katie's predictions were both creepy and interesting. How does a 5 year old girl know the things that she does?

The pacing was good and I liked that there was a small time jump.

I'm really looking forward to reading the next book.

Great Storyline, But Dreadful Editing

I believe my title says it all. The storyline and character descriptions kept me turning pages. However, the editing and grammar errors made for very distracted reading of that storyline. Characters misnamed, wrong verb tense, using terms like “boarder” when “border” was meant; just a few of the significant number of errors. I read the entire My Dead World lineup and found each book increased in poor proofing and editing.

im still omging

This was amazingly written. i felt like i was in Nilas shoes... i talk to my mom sometimes just like she talked to her "person" (if you didnt read the previous book i won't spill) i just wish that shed have thought about everyone and just go to the colony before stuff happened. im glad the amy guy joined them i really liked him from book 3 and im excited for book 5 to see where it ends or is it????

Fantastic series

These book's we're fantastic!! Each one was we'll written and kept me reading until the wee hours of the morning. Her writing is straight forward and not a bunch of unneeded descriptions of words!
Highly recommend!!
Thank you for many hours of reading...hurry up with book 5!!

Outstanding

I wanted to read all 4 books before I wrote a review. I've read several apocalyptic books but this was different. The characters were so real one knows them so well. The suspense never let up and one suffers with each loss. I really really recommend these books. You will not be sorry.

as the story continues…..

Jacqueline Druga is one of my favorite apocalyptic writers. She weaves a story , totally plausible and totally engaging. I really enjoyed reading this series and eagerly await the next one !! You can’t go wrong with her book and she is , fortunately, quite a prolific writer.

[Kaylin Deackman · Rating 3 out of 5]

I liked this book better than the previous books in the series. I think Nila is finally starting to feel like a real person. Unfortunately, it took 4 books to get there. I also really enjoyed the addition of Sean and his parts of the book were another reason why I liked this one better. Interested to see how the series ends.

[Rain · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lucky these books are shorter novella length. I was a little disappointed with this one, after the blow of Levs death, and initially thought it was the final and hoped there would be some happier ending. No such luck, more shocking deaths and Nila's tribe move into the Colony. No matter, onto Book 5.

[Marcie Pfeifer · Rating 5 out of 5]

I liked it a lot.

It had been quite awhile since I read the previous books and I was able to pick right back up and figure everything out again. I didn’t expect a lot of what happened to happen and it kept me on my toes.

Sad it had to end

Well what a brilliant novel. The final journey travelled for an ending to the virus, but, is it really the end. Lots of wonderful characters lost along the way. Katie was portrayed as a strange weird eerie child but her ways did make me smile.

As I had become invested in the characters I wanted to see what happened. This was better than book 3 but I had decided to read it rather than listen to it. It was a quick easy read but feeling that it is pushing gge boundaries a little maybe one book too far

Awesome read

I read all 4 books in 2 days they were great hopefully there's another series with the kids going to look now kept my interest the whole time my emotions were all over the place I really cared for the people and quite a few have bad endings

Our Family

The author makes this virus so, confusing. One day it's not airborne and next maybe it is. The characters have to stay vigilant. They can't just think about themselves. They have to consider everyone in their immediate family.

[Judie Sigdel · Rating 5 out of 5]

If you're a fan of character-driven apocalyptic fiction, this series is for you. I devoured the first four in the series in a few days because they were impossible to put down. I just started the fifth and final book and I'm already sad because I don't want the series to be over.

[Dixie Dylla · Rating 4 out of 5]

I binge listened to all 4 of these audio books and I have to say, they were really good. I like the dystopian genre, but it often feels like “have I read this book before?”, which basically means the military hero, prepared for anything, saves the day scenario is common. Not here! “My Dead World” series takes a different look from the viewpoint of a several characters, none of them the military hero. If you like the genre, you’ll enjoy these! Highly recommend this 4-star series.

Steady on

Picked up so I knew where I was. I want to know more about little Katie. As she grows up. I was left hanging. This isn't the end is it???

[MARYJO FOX · Rating 5 out of 5]

Really good story

I loved this book. I couldn't put it down. I hated for it to end. I really hope there is a Book 5 soon.

Gripped me from the first chapter

Loved these books, would make a great mini series, or a film. Really enjoyed the characters, and the twists and turns

[TheReadingKnitter/ Kasey · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not my favorite in the series but makes me wonder if a 5th book is coming out. Kind of ended on a cliffhanger

[Crystal L. · Rating 3 out of 5]

This was my least favorite of the four. Way too much talking about nothing and not enough action.

[Deedra · Rating 5 out of 5]

We end awaiting twins.I am sure hoping there is a book 5 in this series!

A fantastic book.

This book is amazing. The story is great and the characters are brilliant and so believable that I almost know them. A great read.

Great Story!

Ms Druga has built some amazing characters! It is a fast paced story. Bit of a tearjerker at times... 😭
