I will admit that it took me a few minutes for me to get invested in the plot, but when it picks up, it *really* picks up. Amy and Baby are so goddamn smart and resourceful that I was geniunely rooting for them to have a happy ending. They went through so much and their survival instincts was touching.  

In the After read much like a typical YA post-apocalyptic novel, but the fast paced action really got to me. I will admit that the novel's ending was set up perfectly for the sequel, but it felt anti-climatic. However, In the After never really prided itself on face-to-face battles, so I'll let it slide. It's how fast things go from one thing to another and excitement that made me keep reading the series. I look forward to how things end. 

4.25/ 5 B
