I have just recently started reading the works of Jerry D. Young and all have been entertaining but this has to be my favorite.  The book is full of disaster preparation suggestions and ideas but for me, the fun was reading about Darlene's ongoing efforts to creatively work around her HOA and the nosey neighbor.Our protagonist has no "back up" in her and she does not know the meaning of the word quit.  I applaud the author for creating a highly competent, pro-active female character in a genre known for Rambo or Mad Max style macho male characters.  Darlene is a planner and a woman of vision, thinking big and long term about how to not only survive but carry on civilization in a post-apocalyptic world.  Following her exploits makes for an entertaining and educational read.  Bravo, Jerry.
