I received a free digital copy of this book from the publishers/author via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

A woman by no name has a baby she calls Z. The world appears to be falling apart. Her husband leaves and she is left to find safety for herself and her little one.

This was….okay? Not as good as I was expecting. The main problem for me was not knowing exactly what was going on. There were talks of flooding and fire, and Noah. That made me think that maybe it was a climate change but then there were borders and guns and people being killed so maybe it was some kind of civil ar too? I honestly didn’t know and I would have liked a bit more of an explanation.

This book is very short, at just over 150 pages and it could certainly have been branched out a little bit more. The reader is left with tidbits of information we need to try and string together and i wasn’t overly fond of. Also the use of using just the first letters of names to identify someone was a strange styling tactic and while I didn’t find it too bad, there were times that I found myself trying figure out who was who again.

I would definitely like some kind of longer novel in this strange post-apocalyptic world.
