Bex does not consider herself a survivalist. She's "about the prep, not the politics or racist bullshit"; a "realist who plans to survive" whatever disaster occurs. But when closeted lesbian Bex meets Lucy and they start a relationship, Bex's world becomes infinitely more complicated. Readers are sure to be drawn in by Bex's unusual perspective and her heart-wrenching, timely story.
