The way this is written, this is such a visceral, gut-wrenching read. I read it in a single sitting. It really made me think and wonder what I would do in a similar situation.

A very short book that reveals the circumstances of it's world and characters swiftly but naturally through plot devices utterly intrinsic to the story. This is a delightfully shocking slice of apocalyptic domesticity, with an acerbic lead that lets the author cut straight to the point of every thought and situation. Brilliant, satisfying, horrifying - with the occasional twist of dark humour. Highly recommend!
