This book came across my desk to catalogue a little while ago, and it piqued my interest immediately. I found out later that it had been longlisted for the New Zealand Book Awards - so clearly I have great taste lol. As someone that grew up in evangelical Christian churches petrified of being left behind the rapture, who then battled with some brutal panic attacks largely centred around pollution and waste in my mid-20s, Rebecca’s personal story (although the specifics were different from my own history) resonated immediately. A fascinating and oddly comforting read.
