It was a good book, but it wasn't exciting or very interesting. The religious part was annoying. The story was mostly "the moon got knocked out of orbit, we went to the store and stockpiled on food, now we're hungry, but that not hungry, and at the end, we get four bags of food." I kind was expecting it to be more bleak and more of a struggle. I mean, what would have happened if they ran out of food. Even the cat survived. It didn't seem like they had to truly struggle and make those tough decisions (like what if they ran out of food, would they eat the cat to survive? Who should be the one with a fighting change? What would they do if they were forced to leave?) Again, the writing of the book was it's saving grace, but for a survival story, I don't think I really buy it. I might read the others in the series since they are free on amazon.
