Great Book to Read!

Post by REDONE »

I don't know how many avid readers we have here, but this the best book I've read in a LONG time!

And, just to be clear, SPOILER ALERT BELOW!!

I mean, in any story, you'll take more interest when you can identify with the main antagonist. This tome definitely struck a chord with me and resonated with the experiences I've had in my own life. Just figured I'd share, in case anyone else is looking for a good summer book. :P

Lmao!!! And I thought my reading level was low.
(just kidding)

I was reading a series of books that were sorta a collapse of society. One of the original characters had built a jeep as a bug out vehicle. I had hopes while reading but was very disappointed when the shtf and after he bugged out, soon encountered a situation where he had to abandon it.
I guess I need more planning if I want to jeep out of a disaster.

I read it about once a week to my son (10 month old). I figure might as well indoctrinate him from the start!
