great short to tide me over until book 2 is released! cant say much without spoiling... the author stayed true to the character and filled in holes that didn't need to be filled to enjoy the first book., but certainly adds to the total story. as with until the end of the world there are developed characters and full storylines in addition to zombies and tolerable gore.This novella was free as an audiobook on Audible, and even though it warned me that I should read the first story in the series first, I went ahead and picked it up... and felt it worked perfectly fine as its own story. In the vein of The Walking Dead and The Last of Us, though with a more positive outlook on humanity and its perseverance, So Long, Lollipops follows Peter's journey to reunite with his zombie apocalypse family after selflessly attempting to sacrifice himself to save said family.
DO NOT READ MY REVIEW IF YOU HAVE NOT READ BOOK, UNTIL THE END OF THE WORLD!!!! You have been warned!!*****If you have read the first book you know that Peter dies. Well his family thought he died but in all reality he was saved. I guess you can say it was a Dumpster Glenn move (The Walking Dead). But Peters saving was a bit more realistic. Like for real. Don't get me started on Glenn's resurrection moment. At the end of book one Peter makes it back to his family and it is a wonderful reunion.
It's great to read what happened to Peter during Until the end of the World. You must read it to understand So Long, Lollipops.I absolutely flove this series. I've listened to the audio books 100's of times but this was the first time I have actually read it. Sarah Lyons Fleming is an amazing writer.
Ha, did I just claim that Until the End of the World was too long? I know, I know. I thought this one was too short, mostly because the last part of its space is actually devoted to a chapter of another book, and so the story cut out sooner than I anticipated. Other issues: First, I wanted to knock Peter over the head when he couldn't piece together where to find water (so obvious!!), and second, I would like to mention that Nelly does not drink Pepsi. Oh, sure you can buy Pepsi in Texas, but
This tells Peter's story, and should not be read until you have read the first book.Peter was a selfish, spoilt brat. A very well written, unlikable character, and you feel exactly the same for him as Cassie does. But even the least likely people have moments of redemption.(view spoiler)[ In book one, Peter shows that he can be strong for others, when he does his Dickens moment (It is a far, far better thing...) and sacrifices himself so that the others might live. We of course learn at the end
Nice quick read. Story was written just as well as Until the End of the World. Sarah Lyons Fleming expanded on the already introduced Peter and made him more personable - something we didn't really see before because he was a secondary character (in my reference, we didn't get to hear things from his point of view). We also feel connected to some of the people he meets along the way. This would be easy enough as a stand alone story, and was a great accompaniment to the series. Check it out if
