The Awakening

I love this cover, it just does not represent Maisy as she is in this book. I don't think Maisy has ever walked in heels (in the photo she is wearing high heel boots). The outfit definitely does not match the t-shirt and jeans that everyone is wearing in the story either. The Maisy in this photo is badass looking and our Maisy is not there yet.

Now if you read what I wrote about the cover you may get the mistaken impression that I did not like the book. WRONG! I really liked the book (laugh), it is just that the cover does not represent the story.

Jamie Campbell brings Maisy to life in a bunker where she believes that she is the lone survivor of a meteorite crash. Until of course there is an ominous and somewhat persistent knocking at the door. Now you can tell her parents never showed her a horror movie because “Hello, you never open the door!!!” She does. (laugh)

Campbell then takes us on an adventure that not only has Maisy facing off against the world's most dangerous animal, but some others. Apparently some things survived the meteorite. Then mother nature has some surprises for Maisy. Campbell moves the story along quickly from South Dakota to South Carolina. Not everyone survives.

When the ships arrive, Campbell manages to throw another surprise in at the last minute and leaves us with a cliffhanger. What a trip After The End is and I want to see where it goes and who survives. Luckily for us, it looks like a box set already out and on Kindle Unlimited too!

I received an ARC of this book and I am writing a review without prejudice and voluntarily.
