I really like diary entry first person books and I also enjoy dystopian novels, it seems like it really should be a great hit for me overall.
I am finding the relationship with the main character Lauren and a man who is as old as her dad a bit gross, but i suppose when you're lonely surrounded by couples anything is better than nothing but it feels a little bit off to me. I'm not sure I'm good with it.
The way she is leading a group of people to be peaceful and establish a community that helps each other but also where necessary she is strong and will protect against outsiders and threats is pretty interesting and I wonder how this will continue in the 2nd book where they have settled on the land.
Lots of walking and lots of rough moments in this book not for the feint of heart.
