What Members Thought
Great premise but rather disjointed narrative of a post-pandemic New York (world) found the protagonist to be a rather frustrating individual veering between taking charge of her life and making tough decisions and just going with expectations
Some of it a bit ridiculous- I don’t know many pregnant women on a food ration who would be climbing 32 flights of stairs regularly when the lifts failed.
Ending was abrupt
