A solid 3 stars. I don't feel one way or another about this book, if I'm honest. I had some issues with the pacing and the general plot of the story. In particular, I can't help but feel everyone was way more well equipped to deal with the threat of the apocalypse in such a short amount of time than I feel is reasonable, if that makes sense. The characters adjust so quickly that I feel like we miss out on the fun of dealing with rebuilding and finding a place amongst the threat. The characters all feel kind of similar to me, as well. I get wanting everyone to be heroic and brave, but I feel like it would make sense for people to have harsher and more timid reactions to things. I do understand that this was written to be characters familiar with the apocalypse, but I feel like there was little emotion regarding the events that transpire. This isn't to say this is a bad book, and I definitely think the author can write well. It just might not be the type of book for me, necessarily.

Audible pulled the book from their library so I didn't get to finish. :( I hate this digital purchase world. If I BOUGHT it, I should be able to keep it!
