Why read it?

2 authors picked The End of the World Running Club as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I loved this book because it smashed every expectation I had of post-apocalyptic fiction.

The characters felt so real; Grimes is a badass soldier without fanfare, Bryce is unexpectedly tender, and Edgar is a flawed, fascinating antihero. It left me exhilarated, like I’d run across the country with them myself.

Adrian J. Walker takes you on a scenic adventure across England as his characters struggle to survive a world-ending meteor strike. I love this story as it hits all the elements of a great story: love, struggle, adventure, survival, humor, horror, and drama!

Why would I recommend this book? Because you can’t help but wonder if you’d do the same thing as the protagonist. You can’t help but empathize with him. I mean, what would you do if a meteor was about to destroy everything? How would you save your family? What would you do to keep alive? What if…

From Christopher's list on middle-grade stories with paranormal activity.
