Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel

Saturday, Apr. 27, 2019--Copenhagen to San Antonio

Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel is a science fiction novel set in the future after an pandemic has wiped out 99% of the population of the world within a matter of weeks (killing people within hours of infection and spreading rapidly because of international flights).  It's not a book I would normally choose to read, but I really liked it.  It seemed plausible and also realistic in how people reacted and survived.  There are a few too many coincidences relating survivors together who come in contact with each other.  Otherwise, it was well written, interesting, and a read worthy of a 4 out of 5 rating.
