Hello Everyone!
To find my apocalypse book for our challenge I did not have to look far. My uncle had given me two books for my Christmas present and one of them definitely fit the bill. In this story we meet a young girl as she learns how to cope with being in the middle of an apocalyptic event. Enter Ruby, Ru for short. As she is having the time of her life, in the hot tub, kissing her crush, when suddenly she is wrenched from the hot tub and dragged inside. As she will soon learn, there is a virus in the rain, something that will strip the flesh from your body, even if you just get one drop on you. Where will she go? How will she survive?
I really enjoyed reading this book. It brought up a lot of thoughts that other apocalyptic books had not yet made me consider. Maybe this is because in this story the rain, and any outside water, is unsafe. This means that you cannot eat any fresh fruit, meat, or anything that you scavenge. How do you get food? How do you make sure that all of your needs are provided for long term? Interesting things to think about!
This was a great read and a wonderful way to start my challenge!!
Happy Reading!
