The biggest issue I have of this novel is the fact how that conflict just happens without any explanation and then ends with no resolution whatsoever. Also, I don’t understand how he apparently shows signs of smallpox but they immediately go away like nothing ever happened. If Mitty is a teenage boy I think he should know better and realize that you cannot get smallpox from that. There were some parts that took forever to get to the point and their were other parts that just ended with no explanation.įor example, when Mitty exhales the smallpox crumbs and thinks he contains the virus was unrealistic. Normally I try to give books the benefit of the doubt but I really disliked Code Orange. I found this novel extremely unrealistic and their were parts that made no sense. However, with terrorist trying to attack the United States, Mitty contacting strangers on the internet might not have been the best idea. Afraid he has the disease, Mitty goes online and tries to find answers. He inhales dust from one of the scabs and believes that he has received the smallpox disease.
