Reviews over the Books of GONE

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

FEAR- (I have finally finished it and I will now post what I am feeling)


Unspoilery part-

This was literally the best book I have ever read in my entire life....and while it is 2 am here...I require the need to fangirl about it.

It was truly a work of art, Micheal Grant knows his craft, he knows how to manipulate a story and make his readers into putty. Yeah, there are a few things I don't agree with, but I see how the pieces all fall into place. I love this book to death though, I cannot find myself complaining or anything, this book was truly stupendous and I recommend buying it, I recommend buying the whole bookstore just for this one book. It was worth 17 dollars to buy it and I would gladly pay 100 dollars to read it again. The only reason I'm not re-reading it right now is because it's 2 am in the morning! XD XD XD









SPOILERS, YE BE WARNED




Sam- WHHHHHHHHHHHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY??? WHY MUST EVERYONE HATE HIIIIIIIIIIIIIMMMMMMMMMMM. T_T COULDN'T THEY SEE THAT THE BABY WAS EVIL? HUH! WHY? WHY WOULD THEY THINK THAT? WHY WOULD THEY GLARE AT HIM WHEN THEY SEE EVERYONE THEY ADMIRE RUN AND HUG SAM. I HATE THOSE PEOPLE. THEY ALL DIE NOW. *huggles Sam* T_T

Astrid- Astrid has always been the girl I've identified with, through her brother and through her mind. I started to not like her so much in Plague as she started slipping and when she did that thing to her brother.....I broke. I hated her so insanely much. But this book....this book redeemed her from that deep dark pit and brought her back to a place where I literally want to hug her again. T_T

Caine-

I love him..and I pity him, but he is an idiot. The biggest idiot there ever was. The dialogue made me laugh as if I was reading a comedian tell a joke then Penny came along and gave him a taste of his own medicine and I cried, wanting to huggle him.

But seriously, Caine.......you are an idiot.

Edilio- WHY YOU NO IN BOOK MORE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU! STOP LETTING PEOPLE OVERSHADOW YOUUUUUUUU.

but you turning gay....did not see that one coming.

Drake-
BUT!!!!!!!!! there is one part that just


.....


Drake met a girl that I will now label, A TRUE Drake Fangirl

and at that moment I was all....




and Drake was all



I WANT TO SEE MORE OF HOW HE REACTS TO GIRLS CRUSHING ON HIM. XD XD XD XD

Also....Drake with that baby......I cannot see this. XD XD XD XD XD XD Him just gently picking up a baby and giving it to Diana, I just....I can't. XD

Brittany- Lordy...I love this girl so much....I thought I never would with her annoyingness and everything. While I still don't keep her on my favorite character list, she made me feel emotions and made me cheer whenever she broke free of Drake, I think Grant did a marvelous job with her. It's like the Gaiaphage is the team leader, Drake is the brawn and awfulness while Brittany is just this little bitty bright sun. Yes, she worships the wrong god. Yes, the poor girl has been through hell and back. Yes, the girl gave a baby up to the Gaiaphage.

But she's calm and she's quiet, and you can tell she's doing what she thinks is good. She doesn't get mad, she doesn't get cross, I am very insanely glad now that I based Brianna off of Brittany instead of the actual Brianna, as The Breeze pissed me off while Brittany made me want to hug her tightly. I really hope she comes back to the good side again.


and finally.....


Penny.....







these pictures will have to do for how much I hate her.....I hate her so much. Nothing was too torturous for her.


AND THE GAIAPHAGE

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

I SHALL POST MY REVIEW HERE, TOO, AS I AM NOW FULL OF TOO MANY EMOTIONS AND NEED TO VENT THEM OUT BEFORE I EXPLODE. ;__; Sorry if I'm bugging anyone or am not allowed to do this, by the way. ^^"

Non-Spoiler:

The characters: I WANT TO SLAP SOME OF THEM. @____@ But I love the rest of them! You end up empathising with almost everyone in this book, even if you hated them before. The ones you will still hate... well, you're meant to hate them. *Cough*PennyDrake*Cough*

The plot: Pure. Epicness. It's complex, causes you to scream out of frustration from not being able to intervene and really is genius. *Claps*

Writing: Awesome action scenes, here. Brilliant descriptions of those fights and the building of suspension. Also, the way you hop from one character's situation to another seems far more fluid than the last books. Bravo on that, Michael Grant! ^^

Overall: Like... I'd give it... a 4.5/5. I'm very critical, so yeah. ^^" That's really high, for me!

[glow=red,2,300]SPOILERS AHEAD! TURN BACK IF YOU HAVE NOT YET READ THE EPICNESS OF FEAR.[/glow]

Sam: *Huggle-snuggles* Dude. Your life sucks. T___T How dare everyone jump to assumptions like that?! DX They better listen when you get out!!! And, you WILL get out!!! Because you deserve to!! DX

Caine: You’re an idiot. Sure, drink a liquid that was served to you by a complete and utter psycho who hates your guts, when you didn’t even ask for it and no one else is around. What a BRILLIANT idea. You didn’t deserve what happened to you, though… I kinda wanted to huggle you there to make you feel better. Kinda. >_> By the way: you’re funny when you’re annoyed. XD

Diana: … I… honestly don’t know what to say to you. .__. … LIGHT should sort out my opinions of your existence… However, you really went through Hell when Drake came along, so I feel sorry for you. >.<

Astrid: … Meh. I like you more than before. But you still kind of need to work on that ‘less talking, more doing’ thing. I was fine with you (in fact, I actually started to like you!) up until you spilled that quote… enough with the quotes and the facts and the talking. You’re about to face pure evil - motivational speeches are nice, but come on! >.< Sorry, not the biggest Astrid fan. >.<

Dekka: I got even more respect for you, Dekka. You’re tougher than a Honey Badger and deserve an award for being so epic. You went through a lot, but you always pull through and always stay loyal, no matter what. You, Edilio and Sam are my favourites. ^^

Edilio: Wait, you’re gay? O.o … I really didn’t see that coming, to be honest. XD But, yay, good for you, bro! Being all: ‘So what if that matters to you, Sam? I’m just doing my work… I don’t feel like talking about personal stuff’ about it is good, in my opinion – though it’s probably the minority of the opinions. XD I admire you for actually doing something to maintain peace instead of moping around. XD But you were a bit too behind-the-scenes. ;_;

Howard: Ha ha, sucker! > I’m a bit heartless to characters who don’t further on the story while being alive, sorry. ^^”

Drake: I have noticed a trend in the books… I usually laugh whenever Drake is in the scene. He usually isn’t telling the joke, but characters around him say stuff to him that make me laugh. XD He just brings the comedy with him. XDDDD … But, seriously. .__. Dude, you need to die. Like, now.

Oh, and the Penny thing… yeah, that made me laugh for a whole minute. I was actually tearing up with laughter because of that one question she asked him. XDDDDDDDDDDDDD I actually think Michael Grant may have been sending a quiet message to Drake fangirls and OC/Drake shippers. XDDDD

Brittney: *Puts hand on your shoulder* … Out of EVERYONE in the FAYZ… you really, really didn’t deserve what happened to you. ;__;

Penny: 533 in my new favourite number. Because, that page in the book made me want to clap and cheer. You are finally out of this story you horrible, horrible little girl. I despise you. More than Drake. BY FAR.

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

XD XD XD XD XDXD XD XD XD

*huggles you* I agree with you completely. XD XD XD XD

Caine....Caine made me giggle from his idiocy.
"THEY WANT TO TAKE ME DOWN"
"....uh...no...they want Penny gone."
"THEY WANT TO STEAL MY THRONE!"


and YES. That Penny/Drake thing had me dying of laughter. XD XD XD XD

And Edilio.....I don't mind him being Gay and all but with THAT GUY??? WE BARELY EVEN KNOW THAT GUY. >.<

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

XDDDDD Yay!! XDDDD

I laughed so much at that part! XDDDD Albert was just mentally faceplaming the whole time. XDDDDD

XDDDDDD It was so funny!!!! XDDDDDDDD Drake's all: " >_> ... The f*ck? .__. "

>.< Yeah, I didn't get why he liked that guy. >.< He was only in LIES and was in FEAR for just a bit, so it was a bit of a weird choice. And it was a bit random. O__o It was right at the start of the chapter, so I was all: 'Wait, extreme drama and suspense the last page and now...? Did I miss something? O.o "

Either way, I still love Edilio. XDD

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

XD XD XD I do too. *huggles Edilio* ^_^

and I don't even really know what Rodger's personality is really, I know he's protective of Justin and I remember he was a happy guy, but that's it...

XD XD XD XD XD XD

I had to laugh at every single misfortune that happened to Penny, and the whole thing with her just gushing about Drake, I was all, *facepalm and epic insane laughter*

I didn't much like Albert in this book. XD XD XD XD but he dealt it to Caine good. XD

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

Spoiler warning, if anyone's lurking on these posts. XD

*Hugs Edilio* One of my favourites. For sure. ^^

*Nods* I barely remembered him when I was reading FEAR. XDDDD When they mentioned: 'The Artful Rodger' I was all, 'Ooooooh, him! The random guy from LIES!'

XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD I found every moment of Penny's pain amusing. She deserved it sooooo much, especially after Cigar. I just wanted to high-five Caine in the end. XD I do wish Drake had whipped her, though. He's whipped every other person in the FAYZ, how hard would it have been to just give her a quick snap? It's really not fair on the innocent people he almost - or did - kill. >.<

I totally lost all my respect for Albert in FEAR, but I did laugh at how he just mentally deadpanned at Caine's paranoia. You could tell he was preeeetty fed up. XDDD

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

XD XD XDXD I liked him in LIES, but he's not good enough for Edilio. He's not. XD XD

*huggles Cigar tightly along with Little Pete* T_____________________T

I think that Orc though, he definitely was very good in this book. ^_^ I liked Orc.

Brianna though....not so much....o_e *slaps her*

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

This is true. XDDDDD Edilio deserves an awesome person, as he is awesome. XDDDD

T______T *Huggles them too* T__________T Why must you be so cruel, Michael Grant?

I like Orc, too. ^^ I used to just feel sorry for him, but I really like him, now. ^^

Brianna was reeeeeally stupid a number of times in FEAR. >.< And she was so mean to Dekka! *Huggles Dekka* T-T And, she was leading Jack on, and I wuv Jack and all his nerdiness! DX

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

JAAAAAAAAAAACCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKK

Is he dead or is he alive? I WANNA KNOOOOOOWWWWWWW

Petey's always reminded me of my brother, the minute that line of "He felt lonely and wanted Astrid" made me burst into tears and I almost called home to talk to him

I know Brianna's only 13 but come on, she could have acted a LOT better than that. >.< )

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

He better be alive!!!! DDDDDD= I wuv Jack! *Huggle-snuggles him*

Awwwww. *Huggles you and your brother* T-T

*Nods* Agreed. >.< She was waaaaay too restless and waaaaay to insensitive. >.<

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

I hope he's alive, Jacky's always been cool. T_T

all in all, my favorite character in this book had to be probably Orc or Little Pete...then this person. askgaia.tumblr.com/

XD XD XD )

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

*Bursts out laughing* XDDDDDDDDDDD Oh my... ask Gaia?! XDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD *Making Tumblr account just to follow the ask Gaia account*

My favourites, for this book, would beeeeeeeeeee... erm... Dekka, Orc and Computer Jack - because he was so brave, and he used to be a coward and all. ^^

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

( XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD Just hang out on the Gone Series tag of Tumblr. XD XD XD XD It's hours of entertainment. XD

*nods* ^^ I agree very, very much. ^_^ )

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

XDDDDD Will do!!! XDDDDDD

My favourites actually change a lot through the series, come to think of it. XDDDD

GONE - Edilio and Jack
HUNGER - Sam and Edilio
LIES - Mary ( T-T ) and Sam
PLAGUE - Brianna (because she was badass in there, with Drake and the bugs XD ) and Dekka
FEAR - Well, like I said, Orc, Dekka and Jack. XD

[F.A.Y.Z Maker]

XD XD XD XD XD XD XD XD I agree with those choices. XD XD XD

T____T Mary. T_____T

I used to just really, really dislike her in Hunger, and with Lies, where she tried to kill all those kids, T___T But she deserved so much better.

[Kida.Quasi.Astrid.Merida.Rita]

XDDDDD Yay! XDDDDD

>.< I only started to like her in LIES. She had a LOT on her shoulders, and no one wanted to help. I felt so sorry for her, and I just wanted to step in and take care of the kids for her, despite the fact that I'm RUBBISH with children. *Huggles her*
