Books like The last girl by Hart, Joe (Novelist)
In a world where a mysterious pandemic has driven female birth rates from fifty percent to less than one percent, humanity faces an unprecedented crisis. Twenty‑five years after the outbreak, medical science and governments have not found a cure, and fewer than a thousand women remain alive. Zoey, one of the surviving young women, is confined to a scientific research compound that studies the virus’s origins. After two decades of isolation—treated as a test subject and kept away from her family—she learns that the epidemic has decimated the rest of the global population. Faced with the daunting task of unraveling the cause of the plague, Zoey must navigate the complexities of science, secrecy, and survival in a world where women are the last hope for humanity.
