If you ask me, I think this is a propaganda, a soft version of it. Your review was fun to read. Thank you for sharing.
I live in the US and we do some really great tings, but we are not the only country. :)

I loved reading your review, and I really appreciate your honesty. I'm a big fan sci-fi, so I will check this book out. Thanks again!

I do agree that the exclusion of other groups is a negative, but its widespread just makes it an unavoidable fact, as most movies regard the US as the center of the world. This fact makes me just ignore that everything occurs in the US, and so forget that it is a negative. The brutality is something I enjoy! :lol2: I appreciate your review and views regarding this book, and I know I will read it promptly. Thank you for the review!

I didn't have any problem with the focus on the United States. There was a diverse enough collection of characters to make up for it. Stellar review nonetheless.

Certainly! I actually prefer we finally speak up on the matter of the US so it can someday be ancient history. I truly appreciate you elaborating on that and mentioning it in your review. :D

My knowledge of aliens was initially from watching sci-fi movies, before gradually listening to my friends chat about them. I believe its time I experienced the thrill for myself, especially after reding this book. Thanks for the review.

You are right! Movies always represent an ‘end of the world’ attack only in the United States. Doesn’t sound very inclusive to me😂😂. However, I like that the author very descriptive as this aids reading and visualization. I enjoyed reading this review. Great job!

I actually think you're right about the star deduction. The world is bigger and more complex than what Americans seem to always portray. Maybe two stars were too much, though ahahah
I will give this book a chance, anyway, since the plot is quite captivating. Thanks!

This review is so well-written I wish I can get my hands on this book already. Suspense and political drama is my fave. I believe I would enjoy this book because of that. Thanks for sharing your views with us.

America is my home and I think we do many things well. This, however, is not one of them. Please do read it, though. The rest is very good. :oops:
