a feminist post-apocalyptic story, probably realistic reactions in there
This was very hard to read emotionally. It was so very bleak, but the psychology in there is sound. Still, I need a silly, easy read after this dark and heavy story.
Minus half a star for Americacentrism like the focus on religion in some parts and the constant belief that guns solve everything.
