Bestselling author Tim Lebbon's electrifying horror novel - now made into a Netflix original movie starring Stanley Tucci and Kiernan Shipka In the darkness of an underground cave system, blind creatures hunt by sound. Then there is light, there are voices, and they feed... Swarming from their prison, the creatures thrive and destroy. To scream, even to whisper, is to summon death. As the hordes lay waste to Europe, a girl watches to see if they will cross the sea. Deaf for many years, she knows how to live in silence; now, it is her family's only chance of survival. To leave their home, to shun others, to find a remote haven where they can sit out the plague. But will it ever end? And what kind of world will be left?

Great book! Personally, i would liked to know a little more into the ending and a possible outcome but never the less a great read?
My husband and I watched this movie (actually called The Silence and not to be confused by A Quiet Place), and I had no idea it was based off a book. So, of course, me being the book nerd I am...I found it.
I chose to listen to this one and really enjoyed the narrators' voices. Multiple POV, news and social media snippets added to the enjoyment for me as well. This is definitely one to add to the “better than the movie” category as there is so much more here. Definitely recommend this one.
