Bad Continuity Issues
Author couldn't decide whether the final events of the book occurred 9 or 10 days after the EMP or weeks or months after, so it kept changing. That was the worst but by no means the only problem. It would actually have been pretty funny, if it hadn't been so annoying. I kept reading ridiculous passages to my husband, until he finally asked me why I was still reading it. I didn't have a good answer. Inertia, I guess.

Too Long and Too Many Unbelievable Coincidences
But not an awful book. This genre is getting thin with plots. Too much strange violence too quickly. But still a good way to pass an afternoon.
