Amazing book, hard to get through emotionally. I would never read this again but if you’re into survival/apocalypse stuff and aren’t stressed out by characters starving or dying… give it a read.

I couldn't really put it down once I got started. The plot builds up and once you're hooked, you need to see it through to the end. Love perseveres through the most difficult times and the best of humanity will pull through. This one is going to stick with me for a while!

This book was SAD. I mean, I guess the ending was kinda hopeful, but mostly it made my heart feel heavy and my chest ache.
