The Rain by Joseph A. Turkot
4.0
The Rain is an apocalypitic novel in which the workd is destroyed by a never-ending rain.
I liked this book. I probably would have given it another star if the ending hadn't have been so sudden. It wasn't just an ending it was a breaking off. That said, I thought this book had a similar feel as The Road, although it had more of a feeling of hope running through it. The author doesn't use quotations to offset the dialogue, and I felt like that gave the book a busted down feeling that mirrors the washing away of the "veneer" (as one of the characters calls it) of society.
Even though the end of the book came in a rather jarring way, I cannot wait to read more.
