EVERY ENDING IS A NEW BEGINNING...

Ruth is ignoring the news. Like most people, she has relationship problems, job stress, friends and family who need her. Ruth has a life.

But the news is about to catch up with Ruth, and her problems are going to be swept away...along with the rest of the world.

Only when the comforts and complications of her old existence are gone, does Ruth finally realise how she might be able to live to the fullest.

Beautiful.

After not reading a book in less than months since having children, I finished this in days. For a book set in a post apocalyptic world, there’s so much to relate to and wonder at in the relationships described. Beautiful.
