The Dead & The Gone: A Novel by Susan Beth Pfeffer After a meteor hits the moon and sets off a series of horrific climate changes, seventeen-year-old Alex Morales must take care of his sisters alone in the chaos of New York City. Companion to: Life As We Knew It.
I thought this book would be as in depth and detailed as Life As We Knew It, but I was mistaken. This book is written to show the same crisis with the moon from the vantage point of a big city. I was disappointed in the characters, which were hard to get to know and I thought, kind of dumb for being inner city kids. It did show the struggles they went through to find food but they weren't very creative and were starving instead of breaking down empty apartment doors to look for food?? That didn't make sense to me. Disappointing.
