I did like it a lot, actually i was win over by the speach in the first person, a post-apocalyptic story told by the eyes of who is living it, that sometimes makes it or break it, in this case, this was all i needed to reel me in. Even with him thinking of himself as a prepper, he doesnt have much experience and he learns at the same time he goes through the experience, it was kind of refreshing for me to see he getting frustated or not being able to use a bow.

In the end, he is a kid that was forced to grow up, many partes of this book he thinks and talks about his mom. (Funny thing at first i thought that he was a She because of his name, he introduce himself as Addie 😅 but in other book by baileigh Higgins i thought morgan could only be a male name, i Blame the walking dead, but, yeah i have that problem sometimes).

When Addie got to know other character, i found their banter really funny 😅 i was reading One of those parts while waiting in Room full of people and i got some glares.

Some readers may become upset that we don't know more about Stripes, this is the plague that brought the world to his knees, well if you think about that, our main character he was in school not long ago, we don't know nothing, aside from him being alone God knows for how long, and i am saying that by our fist chapter, he had veggies in a garden, at least 4 to 5 months, from seed to fruit, this really takes a while.

Everytime i read a post-apocalyptic book i think to myself, what would i do if i was in this situation?! In this book i got the perfect quote that explains my feelings..

"When the end comes, i don't want to be left behind. I'd rather embrace the annihilation than face the aftermath on my own."

I Will use this quote everywhere and everytime ❤️

Mr joshua if you decided to continue this story you could tell us more about the outcome of a situation of a character, that i am dying to ask, but i can't because it don't want to give spoilers, or about the origin of Stripes, actually telling more of the stories of this world would bring to life many volumes😁

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.… (mais)
