[The Journal: Cracked Earth] by [Deborah D. Moore] is told from the perspective of a prepper who can handle herself and her own but needs to teach others to take care of themselves when a disaster strikes. Allexa is the type of character that is enjoyable to read about. She is real and has flaws but also an inner strength that may save not only herself but those around her. Although this book is from the point of view of a prepper it has no political affiliation and was just an enjoyable read.
