sjmyers 's review for:
The Dreamers
by Karen Thompson Walker
I would rate this 3.5.
I was really excited to get an ARC of this new book by Karen Thompson Walker. I read her first novel The Age of Miracles and really loved it.
The novel tells the story of a town overrun by a virus that causes people to sleep for weeks at the time. The story follows a variety of characters college students, a young couple with a baby and a single dad who is waiting for the apocalypse. I did like the book but I thought it was lacking a special something. especially in the ending. I didn't dislike the ending as it made me reflect back on the story but I guess I was greedy and wanted something more.
