The World I Woke Up To

De: Mike O'Neal

Narrado por: Casey Johnson

Kaylee Crawford always preferred the company of animals to people. And that was before people started trying to chew her face off. Volunteering at her local shelter on a perfectly normal Saturday morning, Kaylee befriends a giant abandoned dog named Beast. A fortunate thing for her, as it turns out, because he saves Kaylee’s life when his former owner shows up and tries to eat her. Up and down the East Coast, something is turning people into monsters. Strong, hard to kill, and...hungry. As the world collapses around her, Kaylee will have to rely on her wits, snark, and her newfound four-legged friend to keep herself and her younger brother alive. The roads are blocked. The Infected are everywhere, and they’re not the only monsters cloaked in human form lurking out there. The only way out is up, but Kaylee only has a few flying lessons under her belt. And what goes up, must come down...

Disclaimer: I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review. This has been a very exciting ride. I really love all the characters, from two legged to four. I love their development, the tension between characters and within themselves, and how they are pulled forward by both themselves and the circumstances that they are in. The story is well paced, with maybe a little too much details on the technicalities of flight as compared to everything else which came off as weird at the start but it is a nice inclusion that I do not mind. Will definitely revisit this book again. Narration by Casey Johnson is absolutely incredible. She has brought so much life to all the characters, with strong accompanying emotions and definitely made this book very enjoyable to listen to.

The World I woke up to

This was a good zombie apocolypse book. A big dog in a shelter saves a girl and goes on to be her companion in a new world of infected,crazy people. Casey Johnson was a fine narrator.I was given this free review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Absolutely loved it!

This is such a good story. I think it would be great for a mature 12 and up but this 50 year old adored this story.
Definitely one of luck and survival. Maybe a little skill thrown in there too! Still not sure what one of the opening scenes had to do with the rest of the story. Maybe I wasn’t paying close enough attention at first but I grabbed my attention pretty quickly!
Narration by Casey Johnson was excellent!
I’d live more by this author and narrator! If there is going to be a book 2 please keep Casey as the narrator!
