I really liked this different flavor of post apocalypse story (a genre I love). The shorter time frame of the story made it less actiony than some, but it still felt really full because half the story was the plot and half was the experience of the plot through Denise. In some ways, Denise being autistic made the story feel like a really different take on a post apocalypse story and in some ways, the story felt the same as any other post apocalypse story with neurotypical characters... All the characters felt real and believable, which is what makes for the best stories in this genre. And, it makes you think about what it means to be human and what you want it to mean.
