Synopsis:

No one has set foot on Earth in centuries -- until now.

It's been 21 days since the hundred landed on Earth. They're the only humans to set foot on the planet in centuries...or so they thought. Facing an unknown enemy, Wells attempts to keep the group together. Clarke strikes out for Mount Weather, in search of other Colonists, while Bellamy is determined to rescue his sister, no matter the cost. And back on the ship, Glass faces an unthinkable choice between the love of her life and life itself.

My thoughts:

When I started reading this book I was a little confused because I have not read the first book and if it would not have been for the TV show, I would have been complexly lost. But thanks to the show I had some idea what was going on. I figured out pretty quick what was going on. And I must say I enjoyed the book more than the TV show.

The book is written in four POV’s Bellamy, Clarke, Glass and Wells, which was ok but sometime it felt a bit much.

I liked Clark and Bellamy and their story much more in the book then the TV show. I also liked Glass. Wells on the other hand I really didn’t care for and I’m not really sure why.

The story was okay it was not the greatest but also not the worse. It was mostly all predictable and no major suspense there but it was a smooth read. There were a few ( to me) surprises at the end and I would be interested to see how it continues.

Overall I thought it was an enjoyable read but nothing that I would reread anytime soon.

I give it 3 ½ ★
