The Jakarta Pandemic by Steven Konkoly

3.0

I’ve been reading a lot of garbage lately and this definitely qualifies. It’s about a global flu pandemic with victims hunkered down in one suburban neighborhood. How much food and medicine do you think surrounds your home? Who would share with you? It’s interesting to explore the scenario of how neighbors might turn against one another If they were sick or starving. Could you count on your neighbor to defend you against looters? This even got me thinking about owning a gun which is not consistent with my personality. My biggest complaint is the author didn’t provide very good physical descriptions of the characters and gave them all basic white suburban names so I never figured out who was who.
