Favorite Sentences-
"Rubbing his hands together, Savas appeared exhilarated, possessed of a sudden burst of energy,"
I love how this sentence points out the adrenaline running through victims bodies; they were able to tasks they probably wouldn't have been able to normally.
"He did not want to die. Suddenly, his words were drowned out by crashing noises, a terrible scream, and even worse silence."
I know this is a disturbing quote but I really like how real this makes the book seem. It allows readers to remember that trapped victims were real people that never thought a day at work could end their life.
"The doctrine-or reflex- of telling people to stay put during evacuations was not universally applied."
It's awful to think that people in WCT2 were told to remain inside, yet most people did not know any better of how to handle the situation.
