We, The Infected

As for Eli's experience and control over the supernatural aspects of his infection, the book gives a few hints, for example that it almost doesn't hurt any longer to think claws, just a tingling. This gave me the impression of an Eli coming to terms with his infection, having developed a way to liv...

You disagree, no surprise there. But you are wrong. Just because the Red Cross won't take your blood every month doesn't mean you haven't replenished. 20-50 days, with the mean being 36. Eli isn't worried about the liability that your local blood bank is, so yes it is entirely plausible. Well, I th...

I agree that it would be too expensive to buy blood if she paid everyone as much as she paid Tommy. It's like she's a normal 12 year old when it comes to appreciating the value of money.

Virginia knows she will kill Lacke. But Eli just as she's about to take Oskar, stops. Eli says she will never hu...

I didn't like any of the American Godzilla remakes. The 90s garbage was worse than the current one, but this one isnt anything to write home about.

Just finished it, myself. I'd read in a review of LTROI that his was the superior book. I can't recall where or who, but he couldn't be more wrong. Little Star pales in comparison. I lost sight of the characters' motivations. I liked the story, I suppose. I identified with Teresa.

Thank you for the link.
