A teenage girl chronicles the end of civilization as she knows it, after a meteor strike changes the moon’s orbit, causing massive destruction around the globe. She alternately copes with, and complains her way through the worst year in recorded history, coming to terms with her own mortality and maturity in the process. This is far better than the usual post-apocalyptic fare, with a highly-engaging style and a fast-moving plot. Once I started, I couldn’t stop reading. In some ways, this was realistic enough to make me want to plan for civilization’s possible collapse.
