Why read it?
1 author picked 77 Days in September as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
A thrilling post-apocalyptic road trip, this story hits the ground running and never lets up. I loved that the main character was just a regular guy trying to get back to his wife and kids. He’s not prepared for the apocalypse, but his devotion to his family keeps him going.
I also appreciated that the story inter-cut scenes from his wife’s perspective and that she wasn’t a helpless damsel waiting for him to come home and rescue her. Though the characters face challenges, they also show that people are willing to help each other in dark times.
From Linda's list on post-apocalyptic stories that don’t lose hope.
