While this book did not live up to my highest expectations, I still really enjoyed it!Īlyssa, the main protagonist, was my least favourite character in the book. And when her parents don’t return and her life-and the life of her brother-is threatened, Alyssa has to make impossible choices if she’s going to survive. Suddenly, Alyssa’s quiet suburban street spirals into a warzone of desperation neighbours and families turned against each other on the hunt for water. Everyone’s lives have become an endless list of don’ts: don’t water the lawn, don’t fill up your pool, don’t take long showers. The drought-or the Tap-Out, as everyone calls it-has been going on for a while now. I featured “Dry” in a couple of my newest blog posts, including my October 2018 TBR and my seventh edition of “ In My Mailbox“. “Dry” by Neal Shusterman and Jarrod Shusterman was one of my most anticipated releases of 2018, so when I received an ARC in the mail from Simon and Schuster Canada, I was so excited to read and review it! I knew the very basics about the plot, and knew nothing about the characters – other than the fact that the main protagonists name was Alyssa (we share the same name!). Welcome back to Reading, Reading, Reading!
