Dystopian time where an event with the sun makes a worldwide power outage. It definitely gave me anxious feelings on what me and my family would do incase of a worldwide power outage. The thought of social structure being completely unraveled and left to a every man for himself situation. Cultivating food and gathering water while trying to stay safe in an environment where you can't call for help.

I didn't give it higher stars because I wanted more to happen within the story. There's a lot of pointless details that didn't help the story along. Would've like to see more of the dystopian aspects. Aubrey and Scott where my favorite characters I enjoyed their banter. I also enjoyed Brady, he was the only male character that wasn't insufferable. Thom (Aubrey's brother) was so narcissistic and full of himself that his chapters made me mad.

The end of the book was more where the action was. Exciting things were happening and character development was being revealed. The ending is what bumped this up to a 3 star.

I tried my had at the audiobook while I physically read but the narrator just wasn't my favorite. Probably contributed to my mediocre feeling towards this book.
