SQUEAK!
You traipse down the streets in New York, overwhelmed by the rotting odor of
corpses as you watch rats nibbling off of their decaying remains. Well, in the
book, The Dead and Gone by Mary Pfefer, that’s how Alex’s everyday walk
to school is. How did this happen? An asteroid smashed the moon, and it moved
very close to earth. This caused colossal tidal waves and it created erupting
volcanoes. Alex and his sisters are stuck in the Big Apple without their
parents. How will they survive?
Overall,
this book is a relatively good read. It’s everything a reader who likes action,
suspense, and a little bit of drama looks for. Therefore, I recommend this book
to people whom like world crises, suspense, action, and when a book is written
in third person. One thing I didn’t like about the book is that there aren’t
very many descriptions on the characters, and when I read about books, I always
picture the characters in my head. So, it beleaguered me when I drew a blank
trying to figure out what the characters looked like. I hope you someday read
this astonishing book.
