There were at least two occasions while reading this book that I wanted to bail on it. I stuck it out and managed to finish it. There were small pieces of the book that were good but overall I didn't like the story. The book is written in narration format of one of the main characters. It is based on her writing down her thoughts of what had happened to her family in the recent past and then moving forward of how the shut down of the economy affected their lives. There is never a clear explanation as to why the whole thing happened. There are also some parts involving the relationship between her and her sister that is just weird and totally unnecessary.

I can't imagine ever recommending this book to anyone, even to those who love the EOTW (end of the world) genre. I say don't waste your time on this one.
