These last ten pages haven’t been too crazy but that part about the baby and the fire was really insane to me it is just wild to think that those men could have ate that baby the relationship between the boy and the man is the same nothing different other than I feel like the boy is slightly different from the start of the book to now

The book is a little repetitive but still good my favorite part of the pages I read was the conversation about the boys dream the man kinda says even though there is misery it’s okay because once everything becomes sunshine and rainbows then it’s like giving up I don’t really know how to explain

I haven’t read in a couple days but I read today and I feel good these last 40 pages were interesting my favorite parts were the proper dinner the boy and the man had at the bunker and then the other part was the conversation that the man had with the old man it was interesting I don’t know if the old man purposely acted clueless but he seemed to not care about anything which was in itself interesting

These last twenty pages have been repetitive and although it’s been repetitive I’m not bored you know it’s still interesting I like the whole idea of them carrying the fire it’s an interesting idea it’s like they’re humanity or something and also the whole bad guys good guys thing

I’m loving the story it’s just an amazing thing to see a father willing to do anything for his son you know like willing to die or whatever my favorite part was when they went in that house and found all those people locked under that was really surprising but not surprising since it’s the apocalypse if that makes sense

These last 20 pages have been adding to the story not my favorite sitting but it was interesting my favorite part was the distraction of the people/group that was marching down the street the quote on quote “bad guys” that the boy talks about I loved the description but apart from that my sitting was mid

So far the book is interesting the setting is quite captivating as the world is burning so that’s something I also am enjoying the whole father and son relationship that part where the guy had the kid scared me but it’s fine I also liked how the kid was worried about them being the bad guys because I don’t think anyone wants to be the bad guys well maybe some people but the kid definitely doesn’t

These last ten pages have been building on the relationship between the boy and the father my favorite part was the whole Coca Cola part because I can relate even though we aren’t in an apocalypse we can still stop and enjoy the little things in life because we might not ever get to enjoy or experience them again

So far it’s an interesting dynamic between son and father the father obviously wants to protect his son and is trying to stay focused and not have what are stupid dreams to him so far they’re goal is to go south where it is less cold apparently
