Survivors

By: K'Anne Meinel

Narrated by: Lois Ridge

For some, the world would end with the dropping of the bombs. For others, a select few, it would present an opportunity to show their true mettle. Those who will take on the challenge to live without, make do, and subsist on are the survivors.

Jodi was one of the few. She knew what was coming. She read the signs, and she had friends in low places who kept her informed. She bought a cabin in the middle of nowhere, fixed it up, and warned her closest friends and family that the time would come to abandon the big cities, to hide and seclude yourself for the safety of your family and everyone closest to you.

Krista was her partner, her best friend, and her wife at a time when states didn’t recognize same-sex marriage. Krista coped with her mate’s compulsions by recognizing that indulging her was the best way to maintain a harmonious union. After all, they could afford it. Little did she realize that Jodi was destined to be the savior of them all.

Finding that things were much worse than everyone had speculated didn’t surprise Jodi. But it would forever alter her family’s world view and transform them into something they hadn’t realized they were destined to become: survivors!

good overall

narrator did a good job and the story was interesting but the ending was very abrupt. I felt that too many loose ends were left hanging.

wonderful

This expertly written storyline kept me listening to it and I finished it in 3 days. The research that the author had put in this story was very evident by all the situations all the characters had and made you feel like you could have been in their extended family. A much read or listen.

Worth a credit!

The narrator was good. Even though it was pretty long I really do hope for another part to this story as it doesn't seem quite finished. Some supporting characters I feel needed more explanation. But overall I enjoyed the listen.

Multiple Goodies

It began with an adorable, comforting love story and then became a story of a badass woman. The narration is impeccable!
