By the time Thursday is over, Annie Lee is convinced God is telling her it’s her last day on earth.

Annie and her husband live in a small rural town in central Washington state—a place where almost nothing scary happens . . . until today. Hang on to her coattails as she navigates her tragic past, her frightening present, and her unknown future all in the space of twenty-four hours.

And ask yourself the same question posed to Annie: “What would I do today if I knew I’d die tomorrow?” Will your answer be the same one Annie discovers?

My Thoughts:

This story delves into the question of what would you do if you knew this was your last day on earth? Annie Lee is a wife and mother of four who likes to have her life under control, everything put into its neat little box. As we journey with her on these very harrowing twenty-four hours, she begins to see things differently. One of the things I really took away from this story, is what are we missing out on in trying to keep our lives all wrapped up in a nice package.

This was an unusual read for me. There were some supernatural elements I didn't fully grasp. I wondered who these people were supposed to represent. There is some shock and sadness that comes from unexpected deaths. There is also some very dark subject matter that is brought up as well that I was not expecting. There should be a trigger warning or two, especially for sensitive readers. So please be aware this novel has some very dark subject matter. I understand this is a lesson about how we live our lives in light of eternity, but it is not a light read.

I was provided a copy of this novel from the author. I was not required to post a positive review and all views and opinions are my own.

More from Deb

No Tomorrows-A Novel for Today came about because of a question I heard.

“What would you do today if you knew without a doubt you would die tomorrow?”

It’s an old question that’s been kicked around for decades, but when I seriously put my shoes into its footprints, I found I could not answer it with anything other than cliches. Those cliches, like “Eat chocolate all day”, or “Do that last thing on your bucket list” didn’t sit well with me. I wanted a real answer, one I could hang my hat on—as one character in the book says. I suspected that my readers want a real answer for themselves, too.

Annie Lee, a typical suburban mother of four, is confronted with that question, and spends a harrowing twenty-four hours navigating the answer for herself. In the uncertainty of our times, this question is particularly important for us to consider. Perhaps we’ll agree with Annie Lee’s answer.

Along with a book and a $50.00 Amazon card, the lucky winner will receive a custom-made No Tomorrows pen, created by my author friend, Steve Hooley, at https://SteveHooleyWriter.com, from Big Leaf Maple wood grown and harvested in the Pacific Northwest.
