Very much what was notated from a reviewer, "Undergrowth" fell under the Young Adult category that held apocalyptic, science fiction, and paranormal elements in which case I initially thought that the set-up would win me over but that's a big fat nope.

There were far more underlying issues and hiccups than I hadn't expected along the way that made this a less than satisfactory read. It was like too much happening at the same time compact under two hundred pages with Miriam and her journey in surviving an apocalyptic world that nearly manifested overnight. Alongside that, with the length of the book, it didn't do the story any justice especially with the lack of descriptive writing that could easily prevent any reader from having a decent reading experience. To be honest, besides what was showcased on the blurb, there wasn't much to go on with what the characters actually looked like, their ages, and who they were as individuals.

Essentially a whole lot of nothing was written and I wasn't able to create any sort of connection with the novel which is surprising because the book had so much potential and I think if the storyline was thoroughly thought out, subplots wiped clean or provided more description and characters given depth, this could have easily been a hit.
