Welcome

My drug of choice is writing––writing, art, reading, inspiration, books, creativity, process, craft, blogging, grammar, linguistics, and did I mention writing?

Best Post Apocalyptic Book (Or Series) [Results of Semifinal 1]

What is the best Post Apocalyptic book (or series)?

We have our winners!  I was a little surprised to see The Chrysalids not even make enough votes to go to the final after it got such strong shoutouts in the nomination process, but I even extended the poll an extra day because I don't like splits between "finals" and "lovely parting gifts" of only one or two votes, and during the grace period, it fell even further behind.

Personally, I was sad to see Girl With All the Gifts fall short as well, but that's more of a personal preference.

Semifinal round 2 will be up early next week.
