Description

Mel loves Sasha and dreams of a day that Sasha might reciprocate her feelings (even though she's straight) - so the fact that it's thirty degrees outside in January and hasn't rained for a year simply passes her by.

Mel is just about coping with being the only 'out' lesbian in school and all the sniping that Janis and Ella aim her way, as well as her dreary Saturday job with the stupidly posh Dorian... But when domestic animals suddenly lethally turn on the human race, and Mel finds herself stuck in a mansion with Dorian and Ella, her love-life suddenly turns on its head in the most extraordinary way.

A screamingly funny LGTBQ+ love story from a brilliant new talent.



A brilliantly funny apocalyptic LGBTQ+ love story from a new talent. Mel finds herself marooned after the apocalypse with her true love's boyfriend and school bully Ella - a complete disaster, she thinks - but her love-life turns on its head in the most extraordinary way (if she survives the apocalypse, that is).

About the Author

Olivia recently stumbled across a list of things they Could Not Do in September 1998, according to primary school administration. This included (but was not limited to): hopping three times on the same foot, walking up or downstairs without assistance, and running for one (ONE) metre without stopping.

Fortunately, since then they have become slightly more competent. They have, rather excessively, two degrees in Creative Writing and a Level 42 on Pokemon Go. They live in a highly curated gay little flat with their gay little Canadian partner (she really is very small), dreaming of the day they can adopt a gay little staffie and buy him pyjamas.



Reviews
One of the finest examples of authentic YA comedy straight from the funny bone I've ever read. Watch out for it! -- CJ Skuse, author of the Sweet Pea series
There is no one I'd rather have by my side in the zombie apocalypse than Mel, and no one funnier to write about it than OR Sorrel. A hilarious new voice in UK YA -- Joanna Nadin
Apocalypse Cow is wild and wonderful. I loved it -- Wibke Brueggemann
Authentic, hilarious and deeply moving; Sorrel's debut is laugh-out-loud funny and filled with joy in the face of a terrifying event. APOCALYPSE COW will turn even the most reluctant readers into avid fans of the written word -- Anika Hussain
Brilliant, original and fun! -- Louisa Reid
Hilarious and bonkers and the characters are just gorgeous. The end of the world has never been this much fun! -- Lisa Williamson

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
