Just read this in two days, I was so gripped!

I can't sleep for thinking about it. I openly wept whilst reading the final scenes and thought some of the language was beautiful.

What did you think? What do you think happened to the Earth?

I don't think anyone could be that bleak?

I don't think it's a hallucination, it's just a contrast to the rest of the book which is very bleak and it shows what the world was like. I read it a while back and cried at the end

A hallucination? I didn't read that into it at all.
Loved the book. Want to see the film but haven't had the opportunity yet. I thought I'd go while the boys are in school but the earliest showing is about 2pm.
