Suspenseful Read

This book caught me on the first page. It's an apocalypse story about a teenager, who stayed home while his parents went to visit relatives. He spends a majority of the book trying to get to them. It's an easy read, with a great flow to it. One of the best apocalypse book series I've read. It even has some really funny parts, but very shocking parts too. There is 3 main books and a novella. The Novella really added to the series as an important backstory.
