One sentence summary:
Ann thinks she is the only survivor of a nuclear holocaust that occurred over a year ago.
Review:
Written for the young adults this look at isolation and the end of the world is interesting. Ann, the protagonist is suddenly confronted with the outside world coming into her safe valley and bringing with it an overwhelming uncertainty. It is written for teens and as such uses a vocabulary that your average seventh grader would be familiar with and a character they can relate to (that adults may think is stupid). I recommend it for anyone who is on a post-Apocalypse disaster-story kick.
6/10
