Kahayatle by Elle Casey

This wasn't for me. First, the book has grammatical errors in the first few pages. A small thing, but it pulled me out of the story. Second, I couldn't get past some of the realities the author had set up in her post-apocalyptic world. I was nearing the point of giving up anyway, but the final straw for me was the narrator mentioning (in a world that had gone to hell mere months ago) that she had long ago run out of soap. Soap. There is enough soap in my house right now for 3 people for a year, and I'm not preparing like she supposedly was. Soap is also shelf-stable. There will be soap 15 years after an apocalypse. Yeah, it's nitpicky, but it's just indicative of the lack of thought she's put into setting up her world. If for you, you can get past that stuff and just enjoy the story, power to you. It wasn't for me.
