The Dog Stars

I could not get into this book. The main character lives out in the sticks. Most of the world dies in the apocalypse. He has one neighbor that he is on relatively good terms with. He also has a plane that he keeps to fly around and watch out for perpetrators.

They have some way to create electricity. He keeps the lights on in his house at night. But he does not sleep in the house. Once in a while, some perpetrator(s) will come for him. Luckily they get tricked into thinking he is at home. Our guy can shoot pretty well.

There is a group of people that live somewhat nearby. He helps them out sometimes, although his neighbor is suspicious. Like I said, I just could not get into this book, which is weird because I like dystopian future books. Only made is a little beyond 10% of the way through before giving up. Life is just too short to read books you don't like.
