Description

Regret was for people with nothing to defend, people who had no water.

Lynn knows every threat to her pond: drought, a snowless winter, coyotes, and, most important, people looking for a drink. She makes sure anyone who comes near the pond leaves thirsty or doesn't leave at all.

Confident in her own abilities, Lynn has no use for the world beyond the nearby fields and forest. Having a life means dedicating it to survival and the constant work of gathering wood and water. And, having a pond requires the fortitude to protect it, something Mother taught her well during their quiet hours on the rooftop, rifles in hand.

But wisps of smoke on the horizon mean one thing: strangers. The mysterious footprints by the pond, the nighttime threats, and the gunshots make it all too clear that Lynn has exactly what they want, and they won't stop until they get it....

With evocative, spare language and incredible drama, danger, and romance, debut author Mindy McGinnis depicts one girl's journey in a barren world not so different from our own.

A Cure for post apocalyptic angst

This is my favorite post apocalypse book. For years I had nightmares inspired by Cormac McCarthy's The Road. Miss McGinnis deals with a similarly brutal world but from a uniquely feminine and maternal view point. I would wake at night terrified by McCarthy inspired visions, grab my tablet and fill my head with Mindi's vision instead. It took a couple of years but I no longer suffer apocalyptic nightmares, and I still revisit this book for the beauty and strength in the story, (can't say that about The Road). I am delighted to add this audio book to my library for long commutes and late night listening when I'm too tired to read. This book/audio book is for lovers of kickass heroines.
