Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

4.0

I enjoyed this book very much. The timeline begins at the beginning of the pandemic, then jumps forward then jumps back and forth so you can learn the characters' backstories. It may seem this would be confusing but it is very effective in keeping you vested in the characters and provides a more holistic character profile. The characters are very believable.
There is a lot going on in the book that I was afraid we would be left with a cliff hanger ending so I was very appreciative of the author's well executed closure to the book. Plots and character journeys that needed a conclusion were addressed but enough was left to the imagination to keep me pondering 'what would happen next'.
