The Island at the End of the World by Sam Taylor
Friday Finds is hosted by Should Be Reading.
Here is the blurb from the publisher:
A chilling post-apocalyptic tale of how far a father will go to protect his children-from the author of The Amnesiac
In a world nearly destroyed by catastrophic floods, one family has been spared. Many years ago, as the waters rose, a father and his three children took to their ark and drifted to the safety of a small island. Life there is a quiet idyll of music and farming-and young Alice, Finn, and Daisy are grateful for their salvation-until the day a stranger swims ashore. A terrifyingly plausible adventure story, The Island at the End of the World is a mesmerizing novel from an exciting new writer.
I’m not sure what to think about this one. Many have given it a so-so review yet I am intrigued. There are so many books out right now about the end of the world but for whatever reason I am so taken with them. Must be my dark side coming out again. Have you read this one? If so, what did you think of it? Is it book club worthy?
