For an apocalyptic book this one was not what I was expecting, but that wasn't a bad thing. I could feel the panic and dread as the events unfolded esp in the first part of the book. I def would have liked a deeper dive into the hardships the people faced but for a short book I think it was fine. The characters werent super memorable, but i felt like it was more about the community as a whole vs deep diving into specific characters and i actually appreciated that.
