Reading on kindle. Intriguing premise, with some very familiar genre beats. Big 'The Stand' vibes, also elements that remind me of Claire Holroyde's 'The Effort' and Peng Shepherd's 'The Book of M'. Some of the dialogue devolves into that very recognizable Chuck Wendig voice that I enjoy on Twitter but have never connected well to in his fiction.

Really getting the urge-to-DNF feeling here. Everything seems so passive—the story is happening *to* the characters, nobody feels like they have any agency. The Pastor Bird subplot is subtle as a chainsaw, and feels entirely superfluous. It feels padded, unjustifiably long, and so, SO bleak. It's compulsive, but in no way enjoyable.
