What Members Thought

I read this book in < 24 hours. As a post-apocalyptic tale, it's sort of unsatisfying, and the descriptions of what happened out in the world to cause so many troubles are unsatisfying at best. And the moral or message or whatever was pretty blunt. BUT, for some reason I always get a kick out of books where people are having to live off the land. And she sort of nailed the earnest, bookish 16 year old (not that I'd um, know anything about that, nope).
