I think this section was strategic, so that readers can gain some valuable knowledge.Reynaa wrote: ↑01 Dec 2019, 15:02 I did like this section and thought it was pretty enlightening, though the whole segment doesn't seem to go with the rest of the book. I thought the character of Dr. Kinney was built up but then didn't really go anywhere afterwards.
I enjoyed the link for readers to find out more about CME and the NASA photo. That was unique.
Did you enjoy this section? Does it feel like it belongs in the book? Do you think it seems random?

Exactly! I guess, if the character of Dr. Kinney was not included, what shall be the possible approach of knowing EMP? His character gives us hint about EMP, even myself, I don't know what is EMP. If I haven't read this novel, I don't care all about it, including sun flares.Helene_2008 wrote: ↑08 Dec 2019, 18:17 I agree with you that Dr. Kinney seemed like he was going to have more of a role and then didn't. I liked this section a lot. I think it helped explain what EMP is to the reader. I also found the part about solar flares really interesting.

I wish it played more into the story too. As that part was more interesting to me than all the rest of the plotline.Blindjew wrote: ↑20 Dec 2019, 17:28 It was a nice aside, but I wished it had played more into the story, or, rather, that the character was more integral rather than a talking head of sorts. This may be an intentional loose thread to be used in a later story, one of those things that you go 'Oh, yeah, I remember mention of him!" sort of things. I hope that happens with several of the characters, like Soojin and Steve.

Besides, yeah, maybe it was interesting information but I think if the whole photo thing was at the end of the book it would’ve been better? I mean, it’s a fictional story (romance) and not a science book or a non-fiction.
I’m just saying, the whole thing didn’t fit well.

Good question. Maybe because we have EMP in the title so that was that part of the story. Same with honeymoon part of the title. Justification by the author about the whole plot. Or where she got the inspiration for the terrorist part of the book. I don't know. I did this book as audio so I don't know about the photo all I can really say is that I'm not mad at this part it turns ut more positive side of the book.Noosh wrote: ↑24 Dec 2019, 13:09 Um, I have a question: how was this related to the whole story?

I did not enjoy the random photo with the link, I thought it belonged more in an article and did not go well with the format of the novel.
