After the Flood – Review
After the Flood was one of my most anticipated reads going into 2020 for my Beat the Backlist Challenge. It was an added bonus that my library had a copy, too! Based on the blurb, this story seemed amazing. I liked that it sounded similar to The Bird Box, but slightly less horrific. I absolutely…

I’m grateful for the opportunity to read an…
