Leave the World Behind by Rumaan Alam
2.0

This book is about two families who are strangers to one another. Amanda and Clay go out for a weekend with their teenage children to Long Island and are wanting a vacation. However, one night the owners of the house come knocking on the door saying there is a blackout in New York City. But, what are they to believe with no tv and cell service being down? Should the couples trust one another?
I liked hearing about the families. However, I feel like this book is forgettable and was just boring. Not much really happened.
