Ok I really liked this book a lot. I’m a sucker for anything apocalyptic and you get this in the slow-burn chaos of “what ifs”, which is great. I also enjoyed the writing style of this book. The main character isn’t lovable, which helped me enjoy where the plot was going, and to be curious of how bizarre it would get. And boy did it have its bizarre moments. Wish the book expanded more, but maybe that’s why I enjoyed it so much, it allows you to dive into your imagination of wondering how things will turn out, or how it does turn out for other folks in other positions.
