This is a companion novel to Life as We Knew It, but is set in New York City. This was a page turner ... but I felt that it was much darker and even a little sinister. However, it gave me much to think about.
from Barnes and Noble:
Susan Beth Pfeffer’s Life as We Knew It enthralled and devastated readers with its brutal but hopeful look at an apocalyptic event--an asteroid hitting the moon, setting off a tailspin of horrific climate changes. Now this harrowing companion novel examines the same events as they unfold in New York City, revealed through the eyes of seventeen-year-old Puerto Rican Alex Morales. When Alex's parents disappear in the aftermath of tidal waves, he must care for his two younger sisters, even as Manhattan becomes a deadly wasteland, and food and aid dwindle.
Happy reading! If you read the dead the gone, comment on this post and let me know how you liked it. :)
