Cuppa Tea & A Good Book ,

Excellent

Written pre-pandemic which is oddly quite terrifying. The similarities to what many suffered; the grief, the anger and the attempts to adapt to a new way of life; are explored in a strangely relatable way. I especially loved the immune man complaining about having women politely approaching him with their numbers. It was a really interesting reversal. Also the changes made in the world to “fit” the majority female population, which makes you really question the world we are in. I talked to friends about this book. It clearly had an impact on me.
