Every page in it made you feel nothing but sadness .He made me continue reading a book I usually dislike .The events that caused the apocalypse were detailed excellently .None of the above choices .
What may the author achieve with the book ?
It 's not because it 's post - apocalyptic because that 's what drew me to it . Ordinarily , I would not keep reading such a depressing book . McCarthy did a excellent job of taking me from one emotional extreme to the other , however .
