She can't see anything beyond the rubble that she's trapped beneath, but she's sure someone will come save them soon. As the hours and days tick by, Ruby and Charlie struggle to stay hopefulâ??and stay alive. Ruby has only Charlie's voice and her memories to find the hope to keep holding on. Will the two make it out alive? And if they do, what will they have lost to the earthquake? Riveting, tense, and emotionally complex, Aftershocks weaves together the terror and hope of a catastrophic event while showing the ways that disasters can change and unite us.

I felt trapped with Ruby in the rubble, and my own demophobia was triggered several times. This story covers roughly a week after one of California's more devastating quakes, and follows Ruby. Through it all, Ruby reveals bits and pieces of her past, as does fellow trapped laundromat patron Caleb. It continues with Ruby being rescued, being in hospital, and dealing with earthquake aftermath.
The story was well written, and flowed smoothly. Any situation Ruby was in, I felt right there with her. Highly recommended, especially if you enjoy man Vs nature stories! ( )
