Mission Hindenburg Live Blogging- Chapters 30-34

Disclaimer: This post WILL contain spoilers. If you haven't read the book yet, you may not want to read this post. 








We'll this is it. The last four chapters. I'm both terrified and ready for it to be over because I can't handle one more Carian moment.



"He really hoped he was right. He'd hate for his last words to his big sister to have been a lie." Ouch. That hurt. A lot. 

AGH. This is so stressful. 

I HATE THIS. "Do you trust me?" IAN, ONLY ALADDIN IS ALLOWED TO USE THAT PICK UP LINE. AND YOU ESPECIALLY AREN'T ALLOWED TO SAY IT TO CARA. 

Sorry, but the whole, "This is our last moment, I love you," thing was kind of lame.

....Wow. The Lucian airship blew. I find it very interesting Vikram didn't want Ian on board... He said he doesn't want any harm to come to Ian. Wow. 

Oh my gosh. IS THE OUTCAST TRYING TO MAKE THE SERUM TOO??? "One gram melted amber." If he is, he's a lot stupider than I thought. 

NO. AMY, YOU DO NOT LIKE CARA. HATE HER. 

I loved when Amy called the Outcast! It was super intense and awesome. Go, Amy!

YES! I knew Nathaniel was alive. This will be interesting. 

I loved the letter from Irina in the back of the book. Gosh, I miss her. 





Well, I finished the book! .....wow. I'm going to have a lot of posting to do on this.....

This is horrible. This is just....agh.


AMY, STOP CALLING IAN YOUR BROTHER. UGH. I WILL KILL YOU. 

YOU ARE NOT JUST FRIENDS. STOP. STOOOOOOOOOOOOOP. 

The Eriele/Cara/Ian fighting is driving me insane. Kill me. Please. 

So, Eriele just had them hide in a closet. I do NOT trust this chick. 

I KNEW SHE WAS EVIL!!!!!!!!!!! I KNEW IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Phew. We're back to Sammy and Nellie. I needed a break from the other Cahills....

WHY DOES SAMMY HAVE A MAFIA TATTOO? Wait.....is it actually a mafia tattoo? Fe2+....isn't Fe the chemical symbol for iron? And the 2+ has something to do with electronic configuration? I took chemistry, but now I can't remember...

YES!!! I was right. Chemistry joke. Phew!

OH MY GOSH, YOU CAN'T CUT OFF THERE! DID HE SERIOUSLY NOT KILL NATHANIEL HARTFORD????

Aaaaaand, we're back to the kids. Hey, at least they got out of the broom closet. Woo hoo. 

.....I hate my life. 

WHY IS LONDON DOING THIS TO ME??? IF THERE IS ONE MORE CARIAN MOMENT I AM GOING TO SCREAM. 

UGH THERE WAS ANOTHER ONE WHYYYYYYYY???

Kill. Me. Now.

I'm back! I had to get food. Because tortilla chips go great with tears.



I can't believe that Dan actually had to jump!! That's insane. Also seriously far-fetched, but that's besides the point... Okay I have to rant. Where is any sense of reality in that???? Ugh. 

GO, NELLIE!!!!!!!! I love how easily she picked the handcuff lock. She's seriously awesome.

The fact that she burned Nathaniel's file....I don't know. I kind of think that she shouldn't have done that...

I'm really excited that Nellie wants to go to Lefortovo. I'm fascinated by Vladimir Spasky now. Their family is intense...

CARA PIERCE DONT YOU DARE SQUEEZE IAN'S HAND YOU LITTLE......

I feel bad for Ian, having to deal with his father again. He was obviously quite upset. I'm really surprised that Vikram just threw him out though, and didn't kill him. It's not very Kabra-like. 

OKAY ITS OFFICIAL ERIELE NEEDS TO TAKE A LONG WALK OFF A SHORT PIER. UGH UGH UGH. WE DO NOT NEED A THIRD GIRL!!!!!! WHY ARE THEY DOING THIS TO ME???? WHYYYYYYYYY? 

Excuse me while I go bury myself in a hole. With ice cream.

Oh my gosh, Hamilton, Hamilton, Hamilton....he's not always the brightest. XD When he attacked the guy and threw his plastic trays out the window, I was laughing sooooo hard!!!! Hamilton also realized that Toby Griffin was on the ship-yet another Outcast ally. 

Meanwhile, Amy is on board the MIT ship. Did anyone else notice that the stutter made a comeback? Ah, first series...

Hmm, a new girl. Eriele. I'm not sure what to think. Let's face it, there's probably a 95% chance she's evil...

Hahaha, apparently Hamilton throwing the trays out the window made all of the ships come back to earth. Only a Holt.... XD

NELLIE AND SAMMY ARE BACK!!!! YAY!!!!! AND THEY'RE ALIVE!!! Well, for now.

I loved Nellie and Alek's argument about Irina. It was seriously awesome.

Wow. Reading Grace's kill order was intense. But it definitely didn't seem like she killed him just because he wanted a divorce. "N.H. has become a threat to more than just the tranquility of my home." "This is the hardest order I have ever given." Obviously he did something else. I also find it interesting that Irina and Alek's dad apparently killed him. I wonder if he's even more involved? 

I'm still wondering if Nathaniel is alive. And I also find it horrible that no one stood up for Vladimir Spasky- although maybe he did more evil than I'm currently aware..

I find it interesting that Alek didn't just shoot them, he instead left this with the possibility of getting free. Maybe there's more of his sister in him than I thought? Fingers crossed they both make it out.

Oh my gosh, Ian...you can't bribe police!!! So smart, yet so, so dumb...

I find it hilarious that they're just letting Ham go to jail XD

They got another text from the outcast- a poem with the line 'a boy falling out of the sky'. Dan still wasn't back. 

This is interesting! The parts with Nellie and Sammy are definitely my favorites. Now I need to know- what happened to Dan???

Here are all of my random thoughts/rants on these chapters!!

It was funny seeing Nellie and Sammy back in Russia, like in the original Clue Hunt. I really loved The Black Circle, it was a very cool book. Anyways, it was hilarious when the crowd of people started to chase Alek! XD I loved that. The fact that they're in the Lucian stronghold is kind of terrifying. I'm fascinated to see what they learn though....

(Also, just a question, SHOULDNT THEY BE WEARING GLOVES???)

They found Nathaniel Hartford's file.....

THEY DIDNT GET TO READ IT!!! ALEK CAME IN AND RUINED EVERYTHING!!! UGH!!!! 

Okay, okay I'm calm.

ACTUALLY I'M NOT. HE COULD KILL THEM! AND THE NEXT CHAPTER IS BACK TO THE KIDS! NO!

Jonah holds a press conference to distract people from the other Cahills. It was kind of funny, watching him go from hip hop to artsy Janus every thirty seconds. 

Oh. My. Gosh. His crazy mime routine... I'm dying. I'm literally sitting here just cracking up. XD I love Jonah...

Dan is on an airship with Melinda Toth, so he's far from safe. Is his airship the one that the Outcast wants to blow up? Dan doesn't think so, but you can never be too sure...

Dan has two options- leave by parachute, or body bag...

These chapters have been pretty funny, to be honest. BUT I NEED TO FIND OUT WHAT HAPPENS TO NELLIE!

These chapters were pretty good! Here are my thoughts throughout the reading-

*sigh* It was so sad when Ian was reminiscing about Natalie. I wish that she hadn't died....

THERE WAS A *TINY* AMIAN MOMENT!! I DONT CARE HOW TINY, IT WAS STILL THERE!!!! :D

...then he started thinking about Cara. -_-

WHAT THE HECK NELLIE IS BACK AND SHE'S FINE??? WHAT??? I mean I'm of course thrilled but WHAT???? There's no reference to what happened? If this isn't cleared up later, I'm going to be ticked. 

Apparently Vikram Kabra is involved with the airship competition. Surprise surprise, he's involved. I'm actually interested to read more about him, he's never really been mentioned much. 

SALADIN'S OKAY!!! YES!!!!! I'm so happy to read that. I was worried the Outcast would kill him. Hey, at least he's alive for now! And he's feeding him and everything, even if it's not red snapper. 

Alek has been assigned to go to Moscow to get rid of Nellie and Sammy. He apparently wants to avenge the death of his sister, Irina. 

It was kind of funny to see Dan get all nerdy-excited about space travel. He's getting more and more like his sister! XD

The Cahills have a theory that one of the spaceships is going to blow up- whichever one flies closest to the sun. The one closest to the sun would be the winning ship, so the ship that they're looking for would have to be the only one that isn't sabotaged. 

Aaaaaand, Ian's flipping out, surprise surprise. Amy isn't the type to blindly follow orders, and that's driving him crazy. Big shock there. XD

Seeing Ian flip was really funny, but it was kind of sad at the same time. He's under a to of pressure, and he's trying to do what he thinks is right. 

"As they stepped from the plane and piled into the limousine, he quietly feared he had just ordered at least one of them to step on board a flying bomb. If things went wrong, the death of one of his only friends would be on his hands."

THAT IS SO SAD!! Gah. It seriously kills me. 

Time to read again! Another post will be coming soon:)

IAN KABRA USED THE WORD LOVELY WHEN TALKING TO CARA. "Lovely driving."

NO NO NO. THIS IS NOT ALLOWED.

C. ALEXANDER LONDON, HOW DARE YOU. 

LOVELY IS ONLY FOR AMIAN. OKAY? OKAY.

UGH.
