I was cold while reading this, so cold I had to turn the heat on and get under some blankets myself. The book really sets the atmosphere completely. I like movies of disaster and survival. I've read a few books on those subjects, but not in a long time, and this really brought my love for them back. I do think the characters could of done more to help survive, and at times I felt like they kept doing the same thing, I kept waiting for something big to happen and it didn't. I also think the ending happen to quickly and wish there was more.
