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.
I took FOREVER to start reading this. I've owned it since the first day it was released, but I didn't want to read it until I had the cope to...cope. I'm not a horror girl, and assurances that it has a more human-based than zombie-based (despite the zombies) horror didn't really reassure me since that kind of stuff hits me hard.
Then Scott picked up the book and started reading it since I hadn't. And couldn't put it down. So I idly snatched and started reading in fits and starts.
I didn't cry. I was just silently heartbroken, staring. I knew - I knew when the "mosquito" bit. But I also didn't want to. Wanted there to be something special about her to save her. Wanted the concoction she was injected with and her own immune system to do something unusual and save her. Of course, if it had, that would have been hard to believe....
...but oh my GOD I wanted it to happen. I'm in shock. I want George back. I miss her.
Not that you don't know this, but...that wasn't FAIR! *wails*

I'm sorry.
I miss her, too.
