Thank you netgalley and Random House Ballantine books for the advanced copy! 

I wasn’t sure if I was going to like this book at first because there were so many characters and I was having trouble keeping them straight. However, it soon clicked and the story flowed beautifully after! This book was fast paced for me, my heart was racing at some parts. It was very well written and I felt like I was there with the characters! I went into the story blind and I’m so glad I did. It was a very wild ride! It shows you how humanity can behave during an apocalypse, and people show their worst sides. 

Please check triggers before diving into the story. It is very dark, but amazing! I read it very fast and I really want to read more by the author. I did want to know more about the whistlers though! I would recommend it to anyone who is a fan of thrillers, horror and dystopian!
