The part I enjoyed was after the apocalypse era, the coming together and growth of the five nations was intriguing.

The monsters in the novel were fantastic. I got the impression that the author took their time making these. The post-apocalyptic atmosphere of the book appealed to me, and witnessing the survivors gather together created a strong sense of community.

I enjoyed the post apocalyptic era but the unique monsters were fascinating. I could almost imagine myself facing them.

I am a huge fan of the apocalyptic trope, which was what made me decide to read this. Once it's a book about the end of the world, count me in! Otherwise, I liked the evolution of human nature and the parallels to situations happening in the world right now.

Most of the time I was completely distracted by all of the profanity, which I am not a fan of. I know it could be deemed as an exciting book for most people, but it was not that way for me. So unfortunately, I am going to say that I do not have a favorite part. I wish I had a different answer for you.
I resonate with your thoughts. This book failed to land in my favorites primarily due to the tonnes of profanities used in there, and secondly due to the errors. This book could've been so much better had the author been a bit more meticulous.

The abundance of profanities in this read made it almost impossible for me to get to a favorite part. But if I had to mention, it would most definitely be the apocalyptic era.

The dead zone seems to be my favorite too, but i wouldn't bey my most favorite because i love several other scenes from this book. Like the post apocalyptic for instance but the amount of profane words I found is book really disturbed me. But, I was fascinated to see 5 strong nations being built just by few people. I love every part of this book.

The growth of the new five nations was the part I loved most. It depicts the strength of the survivors despite the challenges they faced.

I liked that while the four men after her and Monty were talking about the crazy things they would do to her, Kaarina shut them up with her rifle and impressive skill. I can imagine how awesome this scene would be in a movie.

Sadly, I was too focused on the numerous errors in the book so I found it difficult to have a favorite part. After another round of thorough editing, I will definitely be willing to try again.

I find it hard to say this is my favorite part of the book. Making the profane to be too extreme makes the book less inviting to read though.

I like stories that tend to veer from what we know as our reality, so, of course I enjoyed the Lycans, human-sized wolves and all the other blood-curdling, gory (juicy 😌) creatures. I also don't mind a few swear words sprinkled around, especially if they're used creatively. I think I'm this book's case though, there was some profanity that was just unnecessary. So yeah, I like the gore and blood but the profanity was a turn off for me.

For me, my favorite aspect was more the premise of the book. The setting in post-apocalyptic times was what drew me in. Unfortunately, the errors and confusion with dialogue make it a clunky, tiring read.

I read a chunk of the book and found it difficult to continue because of the surprising profanity in the first few pages. As a result, I don't have a favorite part of the novel.

I would not say I have a favourite part, but I loved the creatures in the story, it sort of reminded me of made in abyss. The profanities in the book distracted me most of the time.
