It is very clear in my book, Stung by Bethany Wiggins, a constant theme is about character change. This book is about how Fiona wakes up years later from a drug induced sleep, and the world is in ruins. There had been a vaccine for a bee flu, but what people didn’t know was that the vaccine turned people into beasts. At first I thought that this book was just about bravery and how situations can cause you to act differently, but now I realize that this book is much deeper than that. As the main…
