3.5

The first half of this book? Two stars at most. I almost put it down and DNFed it.

The second half of this book? It felt ripped from the headlines or a My Favorite Murder episode told by Karen. It was bloody and gory and survivalist to its core.

Combine both halves, it's a middling book that barely held my attention for a while, so some of the stuff in the second half was lost on me.
