i really enjoyed this book, it was a good read.  i liked the story line, an EMP type event that takes out the grid adn all electronics and a family has to figure out how to gather up the grown kids and grandkids that live a couple hundred miles away. not so hard in normal times, a 2-3 hr drive, right?  pretty different when normal is gone.  so the first goal is to gather everyone up and band to other for safety.  i appreciated that the author didnt fall into the trap of having to add the sex and gore that others do to pump up their work.  the story was a good solid 4 star in my view but since it didnt have the sex crap and excessive violence im giving it a 5 star and a big thank you.  this was just a real good story with people you come to like and care for.  no super survivalists or uber rich preppers with tons of gadgets, or stocked bunkers, just average folks in an average neighborhood facing challenges and learning to be creative to survive.cant wait for book 2, please continue the story.  id like to hear how they fare as a group, and what new challenges they face.  i liked the rain water collection set up idea and the riding lawn mower, lol.  makes me want to get one.  just a real good story, i recommend it.
