FEED spoiler party!

Okay, folks, I've been asked for it, and here it is: the spoiler party for Feed. Anything goes in the comments on this post only. If you haven't read the book, I ask that you not click. If you have, feel free to jump in, ask questions, discuss, or just yell at me. I'm cool either way.

Game on!

That entire section with Shaun and George in the van from when she's been pricked through the end of her last blog entry was my favorite part in the whole book. I loved their relationship and that whole scene was heartbreakingly perfect. I'm actually really looking forward to how Shaun does "without" George in the next book. (Of course, she's still part of his headspace, which I also love. It was never supposed to be him left behind, and I really like that his brain's reaction is to hold on to a piece of her personality.)

That was probably one of the most painful scenes I've read in any book in a long time.

I take this as a compliment.

In the twenty months since I read the draft, I forgot important things like Buffy's involvement in the conspiracy, Tate's involvement in the conspiracy, and the CDC's role in the conspiracy.

I did not forget the horrible, gut-wrenching experience of reading Georgia fucking Mason losing her goddamn mind and pleading for her brother to shoot her. I'm...tearing up just thinking about it.

You sure did. That scene will be with me for a long, long time. I tend to forget details of most books very shortly after I read them. Only truly well done scenes stick, and this is right up there at the top for me.
