Private Rites

I had to keep going just to see how it resolved, and to be honest, WTF was up with the tiny cult reference... I love her other work, I loved somethings about this story, but maybe the story was less interesting than the setting- a future, water logged, climate changed London. Please don't let this be your first Julia Armfield book. Yes, she can be slow, and gloomy grey, but she can write!

The ending felt a bit rushed but all the built-up and atmosphere was extremely well done -- the climate catastrophe was realistic, people coping, trying to live their lives, still going to their mindless jobs in offices or serving coffee while the world slowly goes under water...
