Run by Blake Crouch - A Five-Star Review
This book grabbed me from the first page and didn't let go until the very end. Blake Crouch does an incredible job of weaving a suspenseful and terrifying tale of survival in a world gone mad. The premise is simple but chilling: a celestial event, the “Great Auroral Storm...

Everything you want in a post apocalyptic thriller. People are the only monsters that scare me. This feels a lot like Cormac McCarthy‘s The Road. It is Blake Crouch‘s debut novel, so it was missing a bit of finesse. The ending felt a little blunt, but I understand where he was going with it. I loved it anyway.

Hoping to get these 3 finished or mostly finished this week! Creepy for Halloween and then Blake Crouch is one of my favorites.

This book is terrifying. Something has turned people against each other, “the affected” are murdering their friends, family and anyone they see. Dee, Jack and their two kids are on the run from New Mexico to Canada to see if there is freedom from the affected. How far do you go and what are you willing to do when you are running for your life? I read this in one sitting.

It looks like they are releasing this Blake Crouch from 2011. I am a fair weather Crouch fan. I will pick up his books but feel a bit middle of the road about him. This is my 4th book of his. I enjoy them while I read them, I was happy to keep picking this up but looking deeper at it, the characters are not well drawn (the main character is a philosophy prof, but no philosophy is talked about and you get no feelings of teacher from him) 👇

Surprisingly unputdownable story of a family fleeing horror and searching for a safe haven.

(Non)zombie survival story. It didn't add anything to the genre.

Not the best book I‘ve ever read but definitely not the worst. This was another recommendation from @Reviewsbylola she liked it but I honestly thought all of the characters except Jack were just unlikable and the whole story just felt phoned in.

This was such an enjoyable read for me !! Finished it in like a day - which is so rare now that I have to spend so much time #adulting ... sighhhhh 😂

A suspected virus has turned a large number of citizens into bloodthirsty, ruthless killers. Dee and Jack flee their home in terror with their two kids in tow, but nowhere seems safe.

This is my 6th Crouch and possibly my favorite. As per usual, I couldn‘t put this down. It‘s very graphic and depressing at times, so not for everyone.

#SPORTSGIVEAWAY RUN!! Hope kindle counts.

Dee Colclough first appeared on page 7 and for the entire rest of the book I wanted to bitch slap her. What an annoying character. Despite Dee's presence, I thoroughly enjoyed this book.

Another step on the path to read all of Crouch's books!

Run is a great title, as this book hits the ground running! This book actually made my heart beat faster and harder more than once, as if I were the one in danger. Action-packed and interesting!

This was a quick read for me but kept me on the edge of my seat wondering what was going to happen to the family and why everyone was going crazy.
