I also wanted to love this book. It was an ambitious project, to weave an allegory based on the entire Bible, climate crisis, and End Times. I ended up feeling a little terrified (is that possible?), not so much by the apocalyptic events, but by the dynamic between the "wise" adolescents and the drugged/drunk/sex-crazed parents. The smug adolescents seemed just as unanchored morally, as they also dallied in drugs, sex, and drinking, although they were the "remnant" responsible for carrying on society post-storm. The book ended up with Eve (!) the main character, telling her brother he was right, Jesus is science and the Holy Ghost is the "things people make" or "art." The allegory and this conclusion felt altogether forced. I couldn't identity the Jesus character in this or understand how you can make an allegory of Christianity without the centrality of the cross or something cross-like? I'm not sure where I would have been located in this novel (which was a National Book Award Finalist). Maybe just swept out to sea with the other miscellaneous adult bodies. I accept that my generation added to the climate crisis and don't want to minimize this overarching idea. I also accept that the Bible gives believers responsibility for care of God''s world with His help. Maybe this is what allegory is meant to do, irritate us to action. After all, Jonathan Swift didn't really want people to eat babies.

Audio book a story about a wealthy woman in her sixties who awakens in a nursing home memory unit with no memory of why she is there. She escapes and with the support of her young teen granddaughter and gradual recovery from over medication, Rose untangles a complicated web of evil - it’s all about the greed for money from relatives who will inherit and the greed of the nursing home owners to shorten the lives of selected residents. I did not enjoy this book- foul language though

The main character is Brystal Evergreen . In this book Brystal starts out as a normal child. As a child she loved reading books.

This was a very interesting history of a local unsolved murder outside Troy in 1908. The case is still unsolved but after an extensive review of the known facts the authors put forth their suspect.

Very quick read to connect books two and three in the Housemaid series. It was light and gave a little glimpse into Millie and Enzo's life.

I like mysteries. I like trying to guess who the person was that did the crime. It was easy to read.

it was a amazing book and very funny

Wonderful book with great strategies for waiting and being patient.

A fun and quick read about taking life less seriously. The audiobook was great as it was read by the authors.

This book was entertaining, but wasn’t her best. It seemed pretty out there and not really believable.
