Grant Leishman for Readers’ FavoriteCall Me Adam by Jo McCarty has a fascinating premise that had me hooked from the very first lines.
Call Me Adam is a well-written story and a breath of fresh air for fans of apocalyptic and lightly supernatural tales. It is also a wonderful reminder that life is composed of choices.
Gaius Konstantine for Readers’ Favorite
This postapocalyptic thriller with a huge heart stands out for its poignant take on suicidal tendencies, which is why I believe it to be destined for classic status in the future. A tense, yet tender-hearted tale of how the world could end and begin anew, CALL ME ADAM is a masterpiece. Solid ten out of five!
