The Age of Miracles by Karen Thompson Walker

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


I shudder to think of these times The Age of Miracles described. The end of days seem inevitable and all the possible wrongs that could happen to earth as we know it. The book could possibly stretch out the ten years between when the slowing starts and the abrupt ending of suddenly finding the protagonist at 23 years old. I think i would appreciate how the slowing aged Julia and the people around her, marking some paradox of life milestones had it been ‘normal,’ instead of focusing on only the early years. Wished it had been somewhat a happy ending for her and Seth. A companionship in hard times.
