Story4.5 out of 5 stars 55
Amy is watching TV when the world is attacked by Them. Most of the population is overtaken, but Amy manages to survive - and even rescue "Baby" a toddler she finds in an abandoned supermarket. Then, after years of hiding, they are miraculously rescued and taken to New Hope, a colony of survivors living in a former government research compound. While at first the colony seems like a dream, with plenty of food, safety, and shelter, New Hope slowly reveals that it is far from ideal. And Amy soon realizes that unless things change, she'll lose Baby - and much more.

But when the two are trapped in a hospital during the last gasp of a dying city, alone time is no longer an option. A nurse's offer of sanctuary promises Sylvie the supplies she needs to survive the zombies - it's the coexisting with people that might do her in. Eric Forrest will do whatever it takes to get into the dead city for his sister, including ending up dead himself. He's used to taking risks, but with every mile he travels death looks likelier.

Cassie Forrest isn't surprised to learn that the day she’s decided to get her life together is also the day the world ends. After all, she’s been on a self-imposed losing streak since her survivalist parents died: she’s stopped painting, broken off her engagement to Adrian and dated a real jerk. Rectifying her mistakes has to wait, however, because Cassie and her friends have just enough time to escape Brooklyn for her parents’ cabin before Bornavirus LX turns them into zombies, too.

All Dr. Brianna Lewis wants is a cup of coffee. Coffee to make slaving away in her cell culture lab at Green Fields Biotech a little more bearable on a Friday afternoon when everyone is home already. What she doesn't count on is a group of terrorists blowing up all the entrances to the building and taking her and a select few others hostage. Bree soon finds herself conflicted. Not only does she know their charismatic leader, she also starts to suspect that there is a lot more to this than the hunt for an illegal bioweapon....

Buy the text version - avoid this annoying voice.
The reader for this audiobook speaks in an annoying, perky baby voice, like a stereotypical annoying cheerleader who's trying a baby voice to be cute. The character whose first-person POV she's representing is a girl in her late teens, not a toddler, and she's not perky at all, but rather depressed. It's completely unlistenable and I wish I could get my money back.

Wish I Had Stopped After the First Book...
I haven't read "The Dead and the Gone". I was going to read Alex's tale after this one but doubt I will now. I really enjoyed "Life as We Knew It" but could barely finish this book. I literally felt like I was listening to a difference series.
As another reviewer pointed out, the characters did things that were COMPLETELY out of character. And not in a learning way...like a character going down a difficult road to find their way back to who they really are - that would have been great. But no - these characters seemed like totally different people for no reason at all...like all of the sudden, this family seemed to care very little for each other.
And our heroine seems to have regressed in maturity about 4 years while gaining a huge helping of selfishness!! I REALLY wish I hadn't listened this one!

Recommended for young adults and the older generation too..
This is the 3rd book in a series of 4. I've really enjoyed reading this series. Realistic and thought provoking on the struggles and choices people would face in this end times story.

Young adult fiction for adults
If you could sum up This World We Live In in three words, what would they be?
Hopeful but . . .
What does Emily Bauer bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Inflections were amazing. Bauer really acted out the story and conveyed the humor as well as the horror.

Disappointing end to a series I loved.
I LOVED the first two books in this series so much. That is why it was even more troubling that the third book was such a disappointment.
It felt rushed and contrived. Major plot points came out of nowhere and characters that we had grown very close to made decisions that made no sense based on how they were developed in the first two books. It felt like the author was doing a rush job to wrap up the series because she felt like she had to rather than because she had more quality story to tell
The performer was the same as the first book, and she was great. She just had a not too wonderful story to read.

This is not The Dead and the Gone.
It was hard for me to pay attention to This world we live in. It was not interesting, I sat and listened to this in several sittings. The people in the cast of this book were detailed but the surrounding were not. With the book of the The Dead and the Gone (first book) you could close your eyes and see and smell New York City and being from PA myself she didn't cover the layout of the town, the once population, connected cities, populations, even what was on the radio? A book isn't about the people in it but about where they are and when. I listen to a lot of doom and gloom books but the person reading the book was so happy. Yes, its supposed to be a teenage girl but not to the point where every world scream drama and happiness. The sadness of the words did not come across in the reading. The words were there but the voice was empty.
I'm not going to compare readers because that isn't fair but Susan if your reading this please use Robertson Dean in the future. I"m not going to buy the next book because I don't care about the people in them anymore. I am a person whom buys books based on great stores with the same people in them. But in this book, if all of them died I would have said, well, its really the best outcome for all of them.
