I just read Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel , and it’s living rent free in my brain.
It was such a powerful book in so many ways. I loved the way the different storylines and characters were tied together, some intricately and some just loosely, as well as the multiple perspectives, timelines, and storylines.
I believe it was originally suggested to me as a book similar to the TV show LOST(2004-2010) and it did satisfy that quite well.
Other books that I have read and enjoyed in a similar vein include:
- The Silo trilogy by High Howey ( Wool, Shift, and Dust)
- Wayward Pines series by Blake Crouch (Pines, Wayward, and The Last Town)
- Some Desperate Glory by Emily Tesh
- MaddAddam Trilogy by Margaret Atwood (Oryx & Crake, the Year of the Flood, and MaddAddam)
Does anyone have any book suggestions for something similar I should look for?
Thanks!
I cannot recommend The Dog Stars (https://app.thestorygraph.com/books/dbff7c12-aff3-4b55-ae20-9b2d0051c92d) enough. It has a peculiar style to it and, admittedly, it took me a couple starts until I got hooked. I am so glad I stuck with it. A very literary post-apocalyptic fiction story with more action than Station Eleven, but a similarly compelling character study.
Awesome! I appreciate the suggestion and have added it to my list!
