A review by fedak
Bird Box by Josh Malerman

3.0

Preferred the movie (slightly) to the book though neither was outstanding. Book focused more on the protagonist's kids where the movie accelerated the apocalypse and subsequent years.

Neither the book nor the movie really explain how the insanity causing (alien?) creatures would be so ubiquitous that simply opening your eyes outside would be instantly fatal.

And a book set in 2014 should probably realize that GPS devices exist and could be used for navigation.
