Station Eleven

Why not end the year of a world altering pandemic reading a book about a WORLD ALTERING PANDEMIC? It definitely felt like more of a probable parallel universe than a random post-apocalyptic fantasy. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes dystopian sci-fi/fantasy, especially those that have an appreciation for Shakespeare. (I feel like that describes my entire friend group from high school...) This book was amazing. I loved the premise, the characters, the non-linear plot lines, the scenery. I was hoping that Jeevan would end up at the airport with Kirsten and Clark at some point, but that's a very minor qualm. It also would have been cool to see Tyler's evolution into the Prophet after he left with Elizabeth and to know why or how he decided on the branding of the plane symbol. I also wanted to know August's back story, but I get that a lot of these things were supposed to be intuited. I'm just greedy.
