This one took a bit to get going but is such an intriguing premise that it‘s a pick for me. It‘s set on a remote reservation in Canada. Even their small links (power, cell service) to the outside world start faltering and the group realizes they need to depend on each other and might have to return to the old ways to survive. There‘s such a pervasive sense of dread throughout the second half that now I really need to read the next book. 😅

4.5⭐
Imagine if you will…a woman held hostage for the past five years by a man in the-middle-of-nowhere BFM (bummed f*cked Michigan) is suddenly set free when the power goes out and her locked door is suddenly unlocked…and from there the story ensues. An interesting concept set against an apocalyptic EMP setting. Being from Michigan, it‘s quite surreal to hear all these very familiar cities and areas talked about in such a daunting situation.

AudiobookingWithLeah Included with the audio version that I listened to was a prequel called Chaos Rising featuring one of the characters (Liam) from Edge of Collapse; which highlights his experience when the EMP hit and it takes place in Chicago, IL. It was short but super intense.

The narration by Stacey Glemboski was good…but….it would‘ve been so much better with additional narrators for the other POVs.

I really like this series. This is book 2, this one is about the husband of the kidnapped woman and their son. It is pretty intense, and i felt cold through the whole book as it happened in winter. lol. #ISpyBingoMarch I got one spot. Didn't do too well on this bingo. Three readathons. #SeriesLove24 #ReadAway2024 #MarvelousMarchReadathon @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks @TheSpineView @Andrew65 @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES

Decalino Ada Palmer's Terra Ignota books were like nothing else I've ever read. I still think about that world on a regular basis. Hope you enjoy the ride! 3w
majkia @Decalino Oooooo. Sounds good! 3w

Low pick because the characters were all kind of flat and the ending was kind of flat. I did love reading a First Nations perspective. I found the elder's words about apocalypse especially moving and thought provoking. This was sort of a slice of life slowly dawning anxiety horror and I enjoyed that more than the shock and awe horror/thriller archetype.

This was a great book. An apocalypse with a twist that starts right away. Tense moments for sure. Two Readathons and still working on January and February #ISpyBingo Dog and Backpack. #ReadAway2024 #SeriesLove24 This is a new series for me. @Clwojick @TheAromaofBooks @Andrew65 @TheSpineView @DieAReader @GHABI4ROSES
