The Murder Complex #2 The Death Code Lindsay Cummings Books

The impression I got from The Death Code was night and day from the one I received from The Murder Complex. The Death Code sucked me in and didn't let go until the last word. Even now, I feel like there is another adventure out there for Meadow and Zephyr springing from where this story left off. Everything moves super fast. We get to see a lot of different parts of this world in this book, and you are never in one long enough where you would get board with it. The characters are constantly moving, taking action, and pushing the story along. The pages fell away as I read, and I enjoyed every minute of it. There is a lot of killing and violence in this story but no more than The Murder Complex. My favorite part was at the end in The Ridge. I loved The Hunger Games vibes with different tribes fighting each other and different plagues set upon them throughout the days. I wouldn't call this book romantic. There is a love story in it, but we spend a lot of the time in an 'I'm not sure if I can be with you now that all of this crap has happened in my life' state. Therefore, you don't really feel the lovey-dovey emotions along with them as you would in a book where the romance sends tingles up your spine. The ending was sweet and hopeful. The adventurous side of this book made for a really great read.

The Murder Complex #2 The Death Code Lindsay Cummings Books Reviews

Her editor failed her.. the writing errors and lack of setting description and event connection almost made me stop reading this and the first novel. The main characters are also slightly annoying with their tunnel vision.
HOWEVER. the story is original and I refused to stop reading because I was so interested in what would happen.
It was a little hard to read at some points because it would rip out my soul but other than that it was awesome.
Really good sequel to The Murder Complex. Well written.
This book picks up like three weeks after the end of the first book. Zephyr is out searching for Lark, Meadow's mother, so he can kill her and destroy the Initiative. Meadow is locked up by the Initiative being tortured for information on her mother and the resistance. After the resistance finds a successful way to get Meadow to cooperate with them, they release her to lure her mother out of hiding. She manages to accomplish that and then Zephyr comes along and kills Lark. Then all the Patients attack the Initiative and in the chaos Zephyr, Sketch, and Meadow all escape the Shallows. Now they're setting off on Meadow's mission to find and rescue her family.

I wanted to like this book. I really did. I liked the first one. But I can't remember why. I can't remember really anything about the first one. I feel like I could have liked this one better if I could remember anything. But I just couldn't get into this book. It felt like a chore to finish this book. I kept hoping it would get better.

I did not like Meadow. I found her to be incredibly unlikable throughout the whole book. She doesn't care about anyone around her or the fact that they were sacrificing everything to help her find her family. She doesn't act grateful at all. There was not one single point in this book where I can remember feeling anything for her at all. Or even thinking anything nice.

Zephyr, I just felt bad for him. He follows Meadow around like a lost puppy, waiting for her to give him a second glance. And he acts like he’s only there because he has to be, not because he wants to help the girl he supposedly loves to find her missing family.

Sketch, I just found her to be annoying. And her and Zephyr’s constant childish arguments.

Something I noticed about both of these books is things are always described the same way. In the first book, there are seemingly constant mentions of how silver Meadow’s hair is. And in this one, every single time Zephyr and Sketch started arguing, it was said that they were arguing like children.

Something that I liked about this book would be that the chapters were short so it was always easy to find a stopping spot when I had to put the book down for any reason.

I mostly gave this book two stars because of how badly I wanted to like it. I would probably not ever re-read this book. However, I did like the first one quite a bit and I liked the first book that’s out in the author’s other series. This book just was not for me.
What a book. This is the sequel to the Murder Complex and I definitely recommend reading it first. I loved both books and gave both of them 5 stars.
So I'm kind of done with this genre - the YA Dystopian one, that is.
And while I do enjoy Cummings writing, this book was just too long for me.

Its weird, actually, 'cause I flew through it. Read like a 100 pages in one sitting, which is good for me. But I still felt it dragged.
I could see what was going to happen a mile away, and didn't really like it.
And everything that happened just felt like filler.

While everything about the first book makes sense, this one didn't
It just felt like Cummings added a lot of random stuff, that was just there to make action, and that was sooo boring.

So I'm glad this was the last book in the series
I stopped about two-thirds through. It's boring even with its continual reactionary violence. It's predictable-done for shock value and adds little to the story. The same things keep happening just with different villains-who are cartoon stock. How many times does road runner get run over and it no longer matters? The same here-Meadow continually falls into the same type of abuse by villains-it's no longer interesting- she continues to have the same self talk that no longer matters to readers-in fact, Meadow's character's arc is flat-so yes, it's like Watching cartoon reruns. Yawn
