tarrentorres 's review for:

The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker
4.0

I really enjoyed this book. Growing up in Southern California allowed me to really relate to the scenes and overall setting of the book. The slowing and end of the world is more of a side story to this coming of age story. But I think that is very fitting for a teen/pre-teen girl to see the great slowing and end of the world only in the way it affects her life/family/friends. It doesn't get too deep into the science of the Earth's slowing and I think that works well for this book too.

Again, I enjoyed this book and recommend it as a good coming of age read.
