Fed (Newsflesh, #1.5)

Blah blah blah I had to do it. It's only about 50 pages, so I read it in one sitting (and on my computer, no less), because I can't get enough of these books.

It... kind of disappointed me. And I'm torn. Because the text is essentially the same, just swapping out Shaun for Georgia. Their reactions are identical. And part of me is like, "Uh, that's a copout, and it's boring," and part of me is like, "Well, that's cool, it shows how alike Shaun and Georgia really are."

It was definitely cool to see that the scenario Shaun predicted in Deadline and Blackout was true, with Georgia killing herself rather than trying to unravel a conspiracy she didn't know existed. He knows his sister well.

I don't know, I think more could have been done with it, especially with regards to, y'know, changing up the dialogue/reactions a bit. It was cool, but the way Feed ended was obviously the way it had to be.
