I finished Girl with All the Gifts about a week ago, and I wouldn't describe it like that. All the characters seemed to have pretty idealistic goals for living in a world where nobody's life could possibly be really good.

That sounds like the same thing I was saying. One's got a goal that she doesn't know is impossible, and one's got a goal that she's flailing futilely to find a way to make possible, and one's got a goal that's so blatantly impossible that she comes across as delusional . . . The last time I saw this many characters grasping at this many straws was Sine Mora (or as I like to describe it, that game where one of the characters is a survivor of rape and cancer being blackmailed with information that would get her thrown in a concentration camp.) It didn't feel tragic; it just felt like piling on.

It is a post apocalyptic book, of course it will be a downer.

But everyone's goal IS realistic from their POV. It isn't their fault they don't know what everyone else is thinking or the future.

So many secrets about The Walking Dead suddenly make sense now.
