I loved both of those books.

Yay, thanks!!!

I personally LOVED The Passage, Roadside Picnic, Bird Box, Parable of the Sower, and The Dog Stars if anyone is considering those!

I'm actually reading a horror post-apoc book now that I got thru NetGalley but I don't think I'm going to count it since I'll probably finish it before the end of this month. The Rising looks really good, and I've been wanting to read Station Eleven for a while now.

Recently finished Children of Time in the post-apocalyptic thread and it was a super interesting concept. I was really surrpised that the author hadn't done science fiction before.

I don't think any of the books I have lined up for this month fit into the theme, though, I've just kind of been reading what library orders get filled.

I just finished reading The Cabin at the End of the World, by Paul Tremblay. It's not squarely apocalyptic, but I suppose figuratively, it is. It's certainly dystopian, but it posits that we are in a dystopia right now so there's no one distinguishing feature that makes this a dystopia novel. It really got under my skin, and I haven't been able to shake it yet.

But for my monthly pick, I'm gonna (re)read A Clockwork Orange by Anthony Burgess.

That's on my queue to read. I'll move it up! :D

Station Eleven sounds cool.

I found a bunch of Serena Valentino's Disney Villain books finally.
