“I raised him. Took care of him. Protected him. Fed him and clothed him. Taught him most everything he knows. He's my only hope in all this devastation-the one thing I've always lived for, always fought for. I'd be lost without him. James gives my life purpose.”

"Let's go," Alia says quietly. She's the only one who responds to me, and she offers me a kind smile as she does. I decide I like her for it. "We should secure shelter as soon as possible. And maybe find James something to eat." I beam at her. So touched that she would speak for James.”

I am SO happy that Adam and her end up together 🥹

Chapter 9 may be one of the WORST, most horrifying, heartbreaking chapters in this whole series

"Yeah, I vote for the plan that doesn't get me killed instantly." Kenji grins. "Okay then. Let's go get our girl back." “My girl,” I correct him. "She's my girl."
Kenji snorts as we head in the direction of the compounds. "Right. Minus the part where she's not actually your girl. Not anymore." "Shut up." "Uh-huh." "Whatever."

“Five more soldiers to take out— soldiers I'm hoping I won't recognize and I'm doing my best, but it's not easy. It was pure luck that got me that first target; it's almost impossible to shoot well in this weather.”

I lowkey forget Adam and Kenji were Warner’s soldiers originally 😭

"But what other choice do we have?" Juliette asks.
She's like the second coming of James. I feel for my gun, flexing and unflexing my fingers around it. We need to get going.”

“Our only defense is guerrilla warfare, so we've been divided into groups. Me; an ill, barely-able-to-walk-straight Kenji; and Juliette (who's officially locked herself in her own head today) —this is our team.
Yeah, I'm definitely worried.”

“I relax and shove him a little. It's nice to have him around to break up the monotony in this place. Kenji punches me in the arm. "So now you're abusing the crippled kid, huh?" I laugh, flip him off. "Save your angst for the battlefield, bro." He grins. "You're going to need it."

James is so cute 😭 also am I dumb or did they not mention that Juliette was “dead”…
