About this listen

The end of everything was her beginning....

It's November 2022. The human race has been wiped out by the 6DM virus (Six Days Maximum - the longest you've got before your organs disintegrate and you melt from the inside out). The end of the world as we know it.

Yet someone is still alive. Alone in a new world of burning cities, rotting corpses and ravenous rats, one woman has survived. A woman who has spent her whole life compromising what she wants and hiding how she feels to meet other people's expectations. From her career to her relationships, to what she wears and where she lives, she's made a lifetime of decisions to fit what other people want her to be.

But with no one else left, who will she become now that she's completely alone?

Quite simply the best book on audible. Loved this from start to finish. So invested in this story and the unnamed heroine. An intense roller coaster that I never wanted to get off. I can't wait to see it televised and very much looking forward to a sequel. The narrator was phenomenal too. I will tell everyone to buy this, its fantastic. I could go into detail but simply don't want to give anything away. Just buy it, you won't regret it.

Buy this book!!!!

The narrator was excellent. Kept you interested in her story both then and before I couldn’t wait to find out more. The final part of her diary I was there feeling every moment.

Gripping

I’ve read so many end of the world books, never have I been so affected emotionally from laughter to tears. It was unique and so thought provoking. Read it in two days staying up far to late the first day as I couldn’t put it down. I really hope there is a book two!!

Amazing

Best audio book I have listened to

Wow. This was more like listening to a drama on Radio 4 than an audio book. Very cleverly put together in terms of sound and extra effects that didn’t detract from the story. Fantastic narrator, well actor in true flow really! I had the hard copy of the book but having started reading it I am glad the dog wanted walking and I started listening instead. Very pleased I did.

The Narrator and Sound team could not have done more. Bravo!

I loved this book!! I didn't know how it would land for me, all things considered with the last few years, but it really triggered my imagination. I have struggled lately to find a book that I can stay with, but this is an audible 'page turner'. I recommend it totally and already have put several friends onto it, all are pleased with it so far. Great writer, look forward to her next. Let's hope its not about a world disaster as we will be forced to sit up and take notice.

Best Book in Ages

I loved the book and the narration was very good. However we didn’t need the sound effects, particularly at the end so I knocked a star off.

A good read

Gripping, emotional, disturbing, laugh-out loud funny and thought-provoking. The central character was beautifully drawn. Congrats to the author.
And to the wonderful narrator who was really brilliant throughout.

Great story. Superb performance

I wasn’t expecting to ever like the main character. But it was a gradual shift towards great fondness for the character. I’m so glad I listen to it on audio rather than having read it as I enjoyed the occasional sound affects and definitely the narration. I did laugh I did have a few tears and the last hour was very tense. Fantastic debut novel👍🏻👍🏻

Loved it

The best book I have listened to this year. I was there with her every step of the way, I could see everything, the author painted such a good picture. I was invested from the first to the last page. My only complaint is I wish it was longer. I am usually far too lazy to leave reviews but I had to on this one. Love yourself before it's too late and treat yourself to this little gem.

I am so sad it ended.
