I think this is one of those books that is so good and so well written you have to throw stars at it. There are some aspects of the story I had problems with, but found it to be a great depiction of post apocalyptic life. I really enjoyed the dialog as well, although I know people have a love/relationship with it. So glad I finally read this one!
