Last Girls by Demetra Brodsky

Trained to survive whatever comes, Honey is aware when her compound starts sliding out of control. Threats are rising everywhere she turns and the most important mission of her life, protect her sisters, looks to be impossible...

I wanted to like this. I really did. I'm fascinated with prepping as a topic, and this seemed like a really fresh look at it. But it was just - confusing, mostly. I couldn't track who knew what when why, and Honey seemed to make random leaps without any reason. It wasn't helped by the many grammar and spelling errors. I can overlook them because I was reading an ARC that will presumably be corrected before publishing, but they did make things harder.

With some more work on smoothing out the flow of information, this could have been a fantastic read. As is, it's just...sort of there.



No one knows how the world will end.
On a secret compound in the Washington wilderness, Honey Juniper and her sisters are training to hunt, homestead, and protect their own.

Prepare for every situation.
But when danger strikes from within, putting her sisters at risk, training becomes real life, and only one thing is certain:

Nowhere is safe.
