Preparing For Doomsday — Karen Martin

'Why have I not heard about this before? you mean the world's going to end this year and I've only just found out!' A feeling of panic hits Evie, 'Where's my notebook? I must make a list!' Whilst Evie works through the list of things she wants to achieve before the world ends, her mother harbors a troubling secret, shared only with her best friend. After fulfilling her own ambition in Borneo, she decides the possibility of a happy future lies in her own hands ... doesn't it? This fictitional story reveals the parellel lives of a mother and daughter over a year, as they approach 'the end of the world'. Both humerous and sad, the book will touch a range of emotions of women (and men!) of all ages.
