How would you survive if every memory you had could be erased with a single drop of rain 🌧️? This book is the diary of a woman living in a post apocalyptic world where that's just the case. This leaves you thinking about SO many unanswered questions, but the story was captivating. Honestly would've been a 5 star for me but there was just a touch too much swearing 🤬 for my personal taste.

A very short book that reveals the circumstances of it's world and characters swiftly but naturally through plot devices utterly intrinsic to the story. This is a delightfully shocking slice of apocalyptic domesticity, with an acerbic lead that lets the author cut straight to the point of every thought and situation. Brilliant, satisfying, horrifying - with the occasional twist of dark humour. Highly recommend!
