This was an unexpected gem of a book! I read it straight through in about 2 hours, completely losing myself in the story. Trent and Emily are believable characters caught in an unthinkable situation, and the author deals with their relationship without sentimentality. The story is set into a small slice of time and place, allowing the up-close events to hint at the devastation and horror that is likely happening elsewhere. For me, this added to the story, allowing my mind to fill in the gaps.Lively pacing and great dialog, a well-crafted plot, and a delicious plague story! If you're into apocalyptic fiction, this is a must-read!
