Mar. 26th, 2012 09:01 pm#11, Countdown: A Newsflash Novella by Mira Grant
The year is 2014, the year everything changed. We cured cancer. We cured the common cold. We died.
This is the story of how we rose.
When will you rise?
Eh, I was on a McGuire kick! I enjoyed this, it was nice to see parts of what brought the Feed universe to live (heh, irony!) but, I don't know. I'm not a huge novella or short story fan to begin with and this just didn't have the same kind of umph that the longer novels do. What can I expect, I guess, since it is so much shorter but it was certainly my least favorite of anything she's written.
Again, maybe it's just my whole dislike of the novella/short stories showing through.
