bubblebobble1981 's review for:
Atomic Anna
by Rachel Barenbaum
Anna is a scientist who jumps to 1992 during the Chernobyl explosion to find that her daughter Molly is dying. Story jumps back and forth between Anna, Molly and Raisa( mollys daughter). It was a good book and different but it’s really not about preventing Chernobyl, it’s about preventing Molly’s death. I will say that both Anna and Molly are both horrible mothers. I felt bad for yulia and lazar who adopted Molly and also for Yasha who is Molly’s father. Raisa is a decent character. She gets involved because Anna reaches out for her help thru Molly’s comic books. I enjoyed learning about a different culture. I didn’t like that yasha died at the end.
