Fox Book Club discussion

To discuss the book with spoilers after we're done :)

Thanks for adding this thread!!

Yayyyyy thank you

Soo what do you think guys? :)
For the first 100 pages I was curious, than I was bored and at the end I was intrigued again. In the middle of reading I was sure I am not going to continue the series, but at the end I am kind of curious what is going on in the next book. And as well mention of "Rosewell masacre" (or whatever it was called in english) make me curious to know what happend to all the characters. I am confused from this book a little bit :D.

I loved it! The shift to another time and location and new characters took me a little while to get used to (too many characters) and to get attached to them but once i did, i was back into this book and loving it.
I enjoyed the few twists and turns and i'm intrigued about the ending, too.

I loved the first 250 pages and even enjoyed the character development after it switched over to the future but I did find that it started to drag a bit towards the end. I am quite curious what happens next and am considering MAYBE reading the next book but I don't think I will start reading it right away.

Same here. The change in time was really jarring. I think it was the first scene at the outpost (I think that's what it's called), when Caleb first shows up. For me, that's when the story took off again plot-wise. And I definitely want to know what happened to the other characters at the end. I was not expecting the "Roswell Massacre" tag.

Yes Rosewell masacre make me curious... and so with - what is Peter´s role in the whole story...Am I right that I remember that the Amy´s toy rabbit was called Peter as well?

Is anyone planning on reading The Twelve (the 2nd book)? Because I’m still kind of conflicted, I feel like I enjoyed the book, but it was unnecessary long, but after Babcock and the Many I’m so curious to know the rest of Fanning and the other’s story.

I LOVED The Twelve. A lot more action, a lot more characterisation now that the exposition is largely done. TBH, I was disappointed in City of Mirrors because it felt far too long (800+ pages), anti-climactic and kinda boring, BUT that might have been influence by me reading all three in about 9-10 days and feeling a bit burned out

Was anyone confused or bothered by the lack of explanation around who killed viral Galen in the barn?!?! There were the foot prints and I fully expected to have some long thought to be dead character reemerge and reveal that they had saved Theo and Maus but then I got nothing... I don't know why this is the one thing that bothered me so much!

I don't know if I'll end up reading the rest of the series. I enjoyed my time with The Passage, but nothing really blew me away and it definitely required a bit of effort to finish.

Mmm I think it's implied that he killed himself to save the others in a moment of lucidity or at least that's how I understood it

I felt exhausted when I finished this book as well) though I did not want to continue, now I feel like it's kind of growing on me. Though I cannot imagine going through two more bricks like the first one
