I have been struggling with whether to give this book one or two stars. I'll settle for 1.5. On one hand, the idea of the book was great. A very contagious virus has been wiping out part of the population. This could very well be a true story. Therefore, the book instantly pulled me in at first. However, it didn't take long for the story to start dragging and just never seemed to go anywhere. I kept reading, hoping for some sort of action. I found myself getting bored and I almost stopped reading a number of times. I did finish it, but I still feel like it could have offered more. I also felt like a lot of the dialog didn't seem real. I felt like the author tried desperately to pull together a possible solution to dealing with such a scary epidemic, but in my opinion it failed miserably.
