Just finished this evening. I listened to it on audio and while I enjoyed it, I think I would have liked it better reading hard copy. The narrators voice is so soothing, I often found myself spacing out and I know I missed a ton of little nuances.
I loved the way the author used physical things to show relationships and how they flowed pre and post catastrophe; the comic, paper weight, a dog's name, etc. I also enjoyed all the moments in which characters (post-epidemic) reflected on the things that were important to them prior to the catastrophe. I felt like I got lots of insight into the characters and they were all so varied and yet their behavior was not always predictable.
