I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I am leaving this review voluntarily.

This was such a fun apocolyptic story. I really loved watching her navigate the decrepit world. The dirtbike and smashing into conveniance stores, it all felt very grounded and realistic. My favorite part of the book was the descriptions. The "white hot" pain she feels when she breaks her bones, the description of her slamming into the pine tree, the green hot dogs stagnating in a conveniance store display. The descriptions were so vivid and made the book incredibly atmospheric.

This is the first part of a novella series and I'll definitely be continuing on to read the remaining novellas in the series.

I love the way the author blended the paranormal and post-apocolyptic genres. I also loved the main character's crow friend and the running dialogue she keeps going with the crow throughout her adventuress. through it all, I felt like I was right there with her, in the library, traveling across the country, when she breaks her bones on the abandoned highway.

This was a book that kept my attention from start to finish. Such a fun and gripping read. ( )
