This book isn’t scary in a traditional sense but rather scary to contemplate going through what the characters of the book do. I found the story very enjoyable, however the writing style was a little bit weird, I had switch to the audiobook version to keep everything straight. I also found some of the philosophical musings to be a bit much but otherwise I thought this was a very interesting look at an apocalyptic story.
