Compulsively readable and entertaining. I will read the whole series.

In many disaster books, the main characters shine as selfless and goody-goody. In truth, most of us I think, in a true life or death disaster, are the opposite. Survival brings out the worst in us. To survive we have to make hard decisions…

brilliant read that leaves you at the edge of your seat. Not afraid to show some gory stuff.

A very realistic post-apocalyptic tale! “For the first time ever, I felt ashamed of my species. The volcano had taken our homes, our food, our automobiles, and our airplanes, but it hadn’t taken our humanity. No, we’d given that up on…

This book was great, but Alex's uselessness really annoyed me. I loved that Darla was very helpful and knew a lot of things, but at times Alex and Darla's love for each other really made me want to punch them in the face. The book wasn't…

Loved this book! I was relieved and waiting to read the sequal! I found it amazing to see the stereotypical older guy-younger girl broken in this book, I really liked how it's now younger guy-older girl in this book. After I read the…

The frequent stomach turning descriptions of gruesome gore, were too much! I stopped reading after the third or fourth such incident at about 23% of the Kindle book, couldn't stomach the thought of so much more ahead!

Honestly, the sexuality and course language wasn't that bad and im not just saying that. The author doesnt go into any detail so it wasn't offensive. The grossness definitely wasn't that bad either. I mean if you are a really sensitive…

Wow. This is one of the worst YA novels I have ever read. I didn't have high expectations for it but Ashfall managed to be far worse than I imagined. It was vulgar and had gratuitous sex left and right.It is rare that I do not finish a…

After I got a hold of this I read a few comments about it on amazon and a few said this book wasn't good, but I like a good deal of post apocalypse books and once I picked it up I couldn't put it down, the characters were so intriguing an…

I thought this book was alright. Honestly it kind of intrigued me to see where the book went and I wasn't too disappointed. I've read better books but this wasn't bad either. There really aren't too many curse words in this book (compared…

Alex was about to start a heavenly weekend with just him and the World of Warcraft when the ceiling collapsed on him. When he finally managed to pull himself out of the rubble, Alex stumbled out of what's left of his house and found thick…

Moonlightmortal is absolutely wrong!!!! I love this book! But there did need to be a bit more action, then it would have been even better!!!

I'll be completely honest with you: this book was absolute trash. I didn't even finish it. It was unnecessarily gory, there was so much profanity that I could barely make it through, and there were some things I don't even want to talk…

I love books that deal with survival, and I fully expected to like and be entertained by Ashfall, I am however, somewhat surprised at how much I loved it. This is a book that deserves to be found by a wider audience as it is an exciting,…

Loved this story of survival. If you enjoyed Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer this will be a great book for you.
