I really enjoy the structure of the book, where you follow characters over time and space.
Loved all the Canadian and especially the Toronto references!
I have a difficult time visualizing some books but thought this book was written in a way that really facilitated visualizing what was happening, being familiar with Toronto also probably helped though.
I also enjoyed the tone of the book, it felt neither overly optimistic or pessimistic in imagining a post-apocalyptic world.
One minor critique is that some of the side characters were difficult to distinguish between.
