I've hit a reading slump and just couldn't make myself finish this (it's for a book swap so I kinda feel bad). It's just so bleak and hopeless, I need something more upbeat (?) uuurrggg, hate being in slumps!!!
It has happened.
War has broken out. The big guns have been drawn. There's no turning back.

On the Beach is the story of a group of people living their lives on borrowed time, trying to decide how best to spend the time left to them.
