Five-time Christy Award winner Lynn Austin is acclaimed as “one of the genre’s best historical fiction novelists” ( Library Journal). Set in Brooklyn, New York, during World War I, While We’re Far Apart is a brilliant blend of captivating characters, heart-tugging emotions, and vivid spiritual truths. While a motherless girl longs for her daddy and a young lady hopes for a second chance at love, this poignant tale explores the uncertainty that stalks the homefront as the “War to End All Wars” rages in Europe.

When the doors of the lift crank open, the only thing Thomas remembers is his first name. But he's not alone. He's surrounded by boys who welcome him to the Glade - a walled encampment at the centre of a bizarre and terrible stone maze. Like Thomas, the Gladers don't know why or how they came to be there - or what's happened to the world outside. All they know is that every morning when the walls slide back, they will risk everything - even the Grievers, half-machine, half-animal horror that patrol its corridors, to try and find out.

Victims' behavior is changing to accommodate the rapid spread of the virus. Former Navy epidemiologist Cole Evans is well aware of the rare, infectious diseases the military studies. He also knows the government's stance on sharing information with the public, so if the media has already learned about the disease, then it's too late to contain the outbreak.

Not the brightest kids.
They are the only ones left in the whole appartment building, and they nearly starve to death, when there are dozens abandoned apartments possibly full of food right there. Ok, they have metal doors, but windows are glass, walls are drywall (most likely)! Were there balconies to climb over possibly? C'mon!
Also, the city is full of chunky rats feeding on all the corpses, but no one even considers catching them for a hearty stew. Ew, they literally would rather die. I mean if it's life or death situation, rat stew sounds pretty damn good!
Electricity is super unreliable - let's risk and take the elevator! What?! Bri doesn't come back - they don't think to check the elevator, find her there dead few days later. After grieving over her and settling her dead body to rest, they TAKE THE ELEVATOR back up! Are you kidding me? Didn't you learn?
And the lack of trouble in NYC was hard to believe. It's not the safest place on a good day, but in time of apocolypsis - there is barely any, main character faces no shooting, no looting, no fights. Mighty peaceful.

Two Thumbs Up Post-Apocalyptical Adventure!
As others have pointed out, the narration at first feels a little off due to the narrator's deep mature voice portraying a 17 year old. But it doesn't take long to adjust, and Robertson Dean's soothing voice spinning the dark tale was an absolute delight. I hope he narrates the last two books! I found the Dead and the Gone to be far better developed and rewarding than Life as We Knew It. In LAWKI the plot centers around Miranda and her reactions to everyone around her as she's mostly being taken care of in the face of disaster. Her mother and older brother do most of the thinking for her, and at times her immaturity was obnoxious. In Alex's case, quite the opposite, which made the read more compelling. However, Alex isn't the perfect character, either. He can be misogynistic and quick to anger, but ultimately is likable in the sacrifices he makes for his little sisters and strength in the daunting task of carrying his family alone. It was fascinating to witness the moon event first in rural Pennsylvania, and then the same event from an entirely different point of view in New York City. Miranda and Alex, despite being in very different surroundings, experienced the same horrible situations and seemingly hopeless future. But Ms. Pfeffer does a nice job of keeping the story fresh without feeling redundant, which cannot be an easy task. I look forward to seeing what's next for these characters. And I now trust the moon a little less.

Great Story, Narration was Odd
We’ve been listening to the series while on a family vacation. Everyone really enjoyed the storyline - This one is a bit grittier than the first book. However, the narrator was not well suited to portray female voices without sounding absolutely ridiculous.

A pretty good book
Any additional comments?
The narrator was acceptable. The story was pretty good, however grew a little tired of the excess Catholicism. Perhaps the author felt this was needed to build the main characters. The actions of the characters left that hollow if this was the case.

Great story, not the best narrator
I agree with what others have said about the narrator. In contrast to the previous book, his voice was jarring and I struggled to finish the book at times because of the pronunciation of words like "mami" and "papi". The female characters were voiced so comically it almost sounded like a parody. The story itself is great, but the narrator's performance was distracting

I L-L-LOVED this book! It helps you visualize the struggles that the main characters went through, it really puts you in the pov of them. Very sad book though, I was so sad, especially at the end. Anyways, it’s a good read and I highly recommend it and the whole series in general!
