A post apocalyptic world ravaged by deadly flies that are spreading a disease that kills people. Most people all over the world have died from this deadly disease. There are people attempting to put the world back together. As swarms of infected Flies roam the earth, these few survivors navigate the woods of post-apocalyptic New England, meeting others along the way, each on their own quest to find life and love in a world gone dark. The Electric Kingdom is a sweeping dark story of trying to find yourself in a world that’s practically gone. This book put into perspective what and how life is so fragile. Also that the people around you are fragile and can be gone in the next moment. This one was very well written I loved how this was taken and perceived. It was a beautiful book that definitely changed my mind on how we need to cherish life more.
