I enjoyed this book. My husband and oldest son have also read it even though oddly enough my youngest son is the one who picked it out last fall at our library's book sale!

This is a good YA book. It's a bit simplistic but I attribute it to being YA. It's an interesting take on a dystopian life.

I enjoyed Amy and Baby, the two main characters. I also thought the beginning of the book was more interesting as you learn about how life in the After is like and what it takes to survive.

Amy finds herself alone without friends or family in a world where creatures have taken over earth and feed on people. In order to survive you have to be quiet and learn to live in the shadows. Amy is an early teen when the world changes. She finds a toddler in a grocery store and decides to take her in. The two of them live on their own hoping to survive.

Amy is nearly 17 when she discovers a place where others who have survived have started a colony of sorts. At first it seems like paradise without any creatures, food, and other people. But she quickly begins to learn it's not all it appears to be.
