all that's left in the world book review

Andrew is always quick with a sarcastic joke, pun or innuendo and Jamie has managed to retain his innocence in the new hardened world. Who bring hope and love to the rough journey. Yet among all the heavy of this post apocalyptic setting we have our main characters Andrew and Jamie. The world ended and there’s nothing left but shit.

The entire setting gave me walking dead vibes minus the zombies of course lol but the theory that catastrophic events will change people drastically for better or worse and in a lot of instances it’s going to bring out the worst. This bug takes place in a fictional world that went through COVID, and somehow we still weren’t prepared for it. It was more than a little eerie the similarities between the recent pandemic and this fictional bug, but I feel like that added a whole other layer to the story. The story is so well paced, the story moves along by weeks without getting weighted down by filler material or dragging. I was invested in the characters and story right from the start. I don’t even know where to start with this one. They will have to trust each other in order to survive against both the inhuman and human monster out in the world. They have a destination in mind, but the world outside Jamie’s cabin is far from safe. Jamie helps heal his wound, and eventually they find themselves on the road together.
