Where it really crash landed was the way the main character Aida was presented. Aida is supposed to be 21 but comes across as about 15. She’s immature, stupid, and passive. Disliking characters is normally not a good reason to dislike a book, but if I dislike them because they’re dumb then yeah, valid.

In both this book and The Pharmacist, the author has chosen not to use speech marks. I really don’t like this, I find it completely jarring. I was frequently having to stop to try and make sense of a sentence, work out who was saying what and what was/ wasn’t dialogue. This just kept throwing me out of a narrative that I was engaged in and I found it really distracting. It was the hottest time of the year.

Contaminated foods and dental disease may also cause kidney problems, where infection is released into the bloodstream ( 7). There was no water anywhere and the land had become a desert: all was dry and dusty; the grass faded, the plants wilted. Original, timely, terrifying. Thirsty Animals takes a brutal yet deeply heartfelt look at survival, and kindness, and just how difficult it can be for the two to coexist at the extremes’ CHRIS WHITAKER Tiddalik pushed the birds aside and opened his enormous mouth.

Beautifully written, vivid and unflinching, it confirms Atalla as a real talent ― Doug Johnstone To me Rachelle Atalla really did make this novel an interesting study in how people react in situations that takes them out of the comfort zones and how people become more of the typre of person they are, especially when dealing with strangers. This was because some of the isues that would make it a new adult seemed to be those that the main character was dealing with after affects of.
