Read-along | Feed by Mira Grant Part II

For the month of February, Grace over at Feeding My Book Addiction hosted a read-along of Mira Grant's Feed.

The year was 2014. We had cured cancer. We had beat the common cold. But in doing so we created something new, something terrible that no one could stop. The infection spread, virus blocks taking over bodies and minds with one, unstoppable command: FEED.


NOW, twenty years after the Rising, Georgia and Shaun Mason are on the trail of the biggest story of their lives-the dark conspiracy behind the infected. The truth will out, even if it kills them.

If you haven't read Feed, you can find my review here. Please be aware this post will contain spoilers. If you have already read Feed, please share your thoughts in the comments!

Read-along Discussion

I can't believe I wound up really disliking Feed. I was so optimistic and set to love it. I guess I had high expectations and assumed the first half was building to something. I thought once we were past the setup and the info dumps, we would get out to the Ryman farm and be all set up for things to really start happening. I found out pretty quickly I was going to be disappointed.

My biggest problem was not liking George or Shaun or the awful dialogue. When George said "I hired her..." I wanted to either quit or cry.

I'm really hoping I will make the rounds and find that everyone enjoyed it! I'm dying to know what you guys thought about George's death. I kept trying to figure out how she could come back to life after that. It was pretty shocking.

Even though I didn't like Feed, I'm really glad we picked it this month because I was really wanting to read it.
