Wow, this is just so RAW, painful and yet realistic!!! I loved the bit of hope you left us with, the world they live in is beginning to heal and Jared as well.
Awesome that you got the story so well, I was worried that it would come across too harsh when really I just wanted the story to be as realistic as possible..:)
Thank you so much! "The Road" was by biggest inspiration, it was so much fun to write this even if it was a lot harder to write the dark parts than I thought it would be..:)
I like Dystopian stories and this one was dark, painful and credible. I...well I'm not sure 'enjoyed' is the right word cuz it was such a harsh story, but it was certainly compelling and engaging. And now I'm gonna put on my 'grammar Nazi' hat and mention that you kept using 'to' when you meant 'too' which jarred for me and kept pulling me out of the story. Nice job overall, though, and I liked the tentative hope you left us with.

Loved the mix of "The Road", hard, gray, hopeless, with a little bit of Mad Max too, in the sense of a dystopian world reduced to a wild west.
I couldn't stop reading, even I have a lot work to do!, but worth it
Well done!
