I WANTED to like this book, unfortunately the writing style was not for me. Additionally, the choices the characters make in the face of an emergency really really frustrated me. I spent the majority of the last half of the book yelling at the characters to just at least MAKE a solid plan, let alone a sensible one.
Graphic: Body horror and Sexual content
