My Book Review of The Cold Winter: Book One of the Grid-Down Series (The Cold Winter Grid-Down Series 1)

schoolThe Cold Winter by Chris Underwood
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Good Modern Dystopian

This was an entertaining read. The plot was good, though my analytical mind over-thought some points. Still, it felt believable and appropriate.

There was a lot more action than I expected. I didn’t anticipate the characters to travel about as much as they did, but it lent a broader worldview. Seeing how different people were affected and coping enriched the story.

The inclusion of faith was lovely. There wasn’t anything preachy, but it felt natural. Showing the hope, belief, and religion of the characters in this disaster created another level many tales lack. It was refreshing.

I enjoyed this story and will continue the series. The format intrigued me, and I enjoyed the range of characters. I’m excited to learn more about their fate.
