The Dreamers by Karen Thompson Walker

4.0

I ended up enjoying this one a lot more than I thought I would. It was a slow build, following different characters in a town that is struck with a virus that causes people to fall and stay asleep. It felt a little disjointed at first, but there was a lot going on beneath the surface, as the story explored the social fabric that binds people together (and in some cases drives people apart) and the loose connection between dreams and the past, present, and future.
