Before This Is Over

Before this is over Amanda Hickey-4*  
Hannah worries. Alot. The Manba virus is spreading and she wants to do everything she can to protect her family. Her husband thinks she is being over cautious until her plans come to fruition in that she has stocks of food and is keeping their youngest child Oscar away from school for fear of him catching it from one of the other children. The other son , Zac, is away on a school trip and although away from any cases, Hannah is still worried. This is a well written book and gets you thinking “what if”. Few people think about how much everyday things have been handled by others- change for example and this brings to life how a germ could be spread and how the public react- generally in a bad way but always those who are willing to help others. the good , the bad and the downright ugly rear their heads in this rather unusual tale of survival. Of being selfish and selflessness when called for, of love and family and community. A highly enjoyable read.

I voluntarily chose to read this ARC and all opinions in this review are my own and completely unbiased
