Wool by Hugh Howey
fast-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? It's complicated

I really enjoyed this book. I saw the tv show and was worried this wouldn't be as good, i was so wrong.
The book very much skips a lot of the show, which is fine, but it did feel like it was missing some interpersonal stuff that had been going on but it didn't gloss that over, it literally jumped and then continued which was fin, no waiting around for the exciting stuff to happen.
I admit the first half was a lot more engaging and exciting than the latter half but all of it was exciting the second half just moved a slower pace with a different vibe.
Not sure i really like the characters, they all have giant flaws and that ending was a big surprise.
I just hope that in the future Jules brings the Silo 17 survivors over to 18. I feel so sad for them, but it does mean that Solo/Jimmy definitely wasn't alone, i wonder how mant people were hidden down there on the deep? How long ago the adults were still there?
