Tomorrow Land

Tomorrow Land - Mari Mancusi Where have I been? This book was originally released in 2008 under the name RAZOR GIRL. I wish I would have known about this book then because it was a really good story. I enjoyed it a lot.Old Cover:Lately I seem to really be into anything post-apocalyptic. I love a story where the characters are written so well and I can easily picture them in my head. TOMORROW LAND delivers just that. I liked Peyton a lot. She was a brave person and once she set her mind on something there was no changing it. Although, there were times where I found her to be a bit immature, but it really didn’t bother me as much. I liked how the story is written one chapter in the past, and one in the present. It really helped me understand Peyton’s world and her relationship with Chris. Chris is definitely one of those guys that are super nice, but every girl looks at him like a best friend or brother. I honestly felt a little bad for him in the beginning of the story. He was so in love with Peyton and did anything she asked of him. It was actually sort of pathetic, but when you get inside his head you couldn’t help but feel sorry for him and root for him. It was nice when Peyton and he actually got together. I also really liked the reason why their world fell apart. It’s sad to say, but I truly believe that can happen to us today. That is what’s so scary about these kinds of books. Whenever the story jumped into the present it had me at the edge of my seat. With every page I was waiting for everything to fall apart. In the story Peyton’s father is known as a nutcase. He’s always going around talking about the end and how everyone should prepare. Of course he was right and what he does to Peyton was pretty awesome. He turned her into a fighter to help defend herself against what’s to come. The ending was a nice happy ending, but I feel it left room for a book two. I really hope there is one because I would love to find out what happens to their world. 4.5 out of 5 Stars!
