I'm not so much in to apocalyptic stories but I'm curious about how they managed to survive with very few resources. The plot seems very intriguing. Thanks for the great review!

Great review! I am not a fan of dystopian fiction, but you made the book sound very interesting. I like stories with unique characters so I am going to take a look at the sample.

Great review. I love dystopian fiction and this one sounds intriguing. Sometimes apocalyptic fiction can be over the top and completely unbelievable but this one sounds just right. I'm pretty sure that I too would be one of the those survivors to make obtaining coffee to be a top priority.. Luxury in a post apocalyptic world yes, but still a personal life necessity. :) Thanks so much for sharing.

This sounds like an interesting story. I have no doubt that if I were involved in an apocalypse, there would be something very irrational (like coffee) that I wouldn't be able to live without either. I have no problem with that aspect of the story. Thanks for the review.

Thanks for your interesting and thorough review. Post-apocalyptic stuff isn't really my cup o' tea, but this does sound like an interesting story nonetheless. Thanks for pointing out both the good and bad points about it.

The thought of surviving apocalypse and then living without the luxuries seems quiet repulsive to me. However, reading about it is really intriguing to me. The addition of romance and friendship has increased my interest in this book further. Thanks for writing an insightful review.

Sounds like a well crafted cross between a survival and dystopian story... the sample was very interesting and it sounds like the rest of the book carries that same momentum.
