The End of Things as He Knew Them by Justin Boote, Angel Van Atta

challenging dark emotional mysterious sad tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated
  • Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

First let me say I’ve never read anything by either of these authors, but that changes today after finishing these 2 books.
I highly recommend getting a copy of both and tandem reading. Though I’m sure you would get a majority of the story of you chose just one, you will definitely miss large parts without the second. These are written through email and journal entries through the pov of husband and wife (sometimes other family members).  With each entry there is a building sense of anxiety,  dread, fear, and confusion. I love the way these 2 wrote together and the way this book slowly built up and eventually ended.  Definitely 5 star reading for me!
