The Postmortal was an amazing book.
There were twists and turns entwined with fear and happiness at the end of
every page that immediately got me hooked. The author, Drew Magary, really knew
how to bring words to life in this novel. I felt like I was physically watching
every scene that took place. Magary also made the characters undoubtedly
relatable in a sense that you could understand all the feelings each character
had. He also made the situations that the characters were going through
relatable to any audience. For example, the main character’s father went
through a situation dealing with the idea of peer pressure after everyone
started receiving “the cure.” Initially, the father was against “the cure” in
hopes of one day reuniting with his recent wife but “the cure” became so
popular so fast that people were being bullied for not getting it. I believe
that this book shows in other cases besides this one that public opinion and
actions can change an entire country’s outlook on life and even death.
