Mini-Review (click to view--possible spoilers)
Pro: The author makes the ruins of Manchester very real. Flea's determination to save her mom comes though and feels sincere, as does her rising panic as she realizes her mom just wants to die.
Con: It's hard to believe an umbrella could be strong enough to support the weight of a human being.
