WHAT
A very short psychological horror story about the last man alive in a post-apocalyptic monster dominated world. By day Robert Neville hunts vampires while they sleep, by night he hides in his house, fearing for his life and his sanity. His greatest battle is an inner one, against feelings of depression brought down by loneliness and the knowledge that things are not going to get any better.

TLDR
- too short to be considered a proper novel
- not a fan of horror stories: reliance on emotions and ambiance over an intricate plot
+ involving narrative
+ sorta interesting ending
