Love that Jesus is here. Rick is such a chaotic leader and needs to chill a lil bit. Not enjoying the soap opera drama between the characters and their relationships all that much. The best couple is definitely Aaron and Eric.

Love this series, but the more recent books seem to have lost a bit of direction. It would be interesting to see the characters on the move instead of staying in one place for so long. This last book seems to be going in that direction.

I've been less enamored with the comic for a while, not to mention the awful TV adaption. Things are getting better in this volume.

I continue to find Rick the worst, but had forgotten about The Hilltop. Fascinating world development. And to foil it with Negan (this reads very differently when you know where that will go) is very smart.

Transitional story arc, so don't expect major character deaths, etc from this one. That being said, for fans of the series, highly critical what may turn out to be the next 2 years worth of story lines. Kirkman continues to deliver.

Well her we are with the next chapter in the story. Was it impressive, meh. In this book Rick is trying to strengthen their community. Keep things safe and secure and I felt this books exactly that. It's a safe bet that people will read this because it is part of the series, and the publisher is secure knowing that even though this is a slow plain book they will make tons of money because it says "The Walking Dead".
I'm being to harsh, this does set up what I hope is a very intense story line in future books. In this book Rick finds out that there are in fact other communities out there. It shouldn't have been such a shock because it just makes sense. It hopefully will open up trade between our group and these others which will bring in some much needed supplies.
We get some new characters introduced and with a new community of people it opens up for some new conflicts that our group hasn't had to deal with. I wasn't a big fan of this book. It just dragged on for me until the end. The new community has brought possibility to where this series can go and I am anxious to see what happens next. I just could have done without this book. If the last half of this book was the beginning of this volume it would have been more interesting if that makes sense. I give this 2 out of 5 stars
