The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker

5.0

What would happen if the rotation of the earth slowed? And continued to slow, lengthening days to 30, 40, 60 hours? See it through the eyes of a teenage girl as her family, neighbors, friends and the government try to cope with this frightening situation. It's hard to maintain a normal life when the word 'normal' doesn't mean anything anymore. When birds and whales are dying, when the produce runs out, when people disappear.
