Finished Enclave by Ann Aguirre. It's the first in her Razorland series. I really enjoyed the first half which takes place underground but when they moved "topside" things went metaphorically south quickly. Then it just became another weak post-apocalyptic story. And cannot hold a flame to Earth Abides. Aguirre's book left many things unanswered, described gory violence and yet no mention of the mundane day-to-day activities. Also, there were several grammar mistakes usu words missing. I'd grade it a C- [2 stars]. The book is rated very highly on Goodreads so I am the outlier. Perhaps, because it's written for young adults and ... well ... one of those I am not.
Just started The Moon is a Harsh Mistress by Heinlein. It's not going well so far but will stick with it for a few more pages.
