For a class I took last year (2024) we got to read the first chapter of several different English language books. I remember one as being particularly interesting to me, but cannot for the life of me find it.
I remember what it says in the title, essentially; I seem to remember the MC being a teenage girl and living alone with her mother in this house with tilted/leaning floors. I believe a storm comes in at the end of the chapter, and that the mother is washed away. I don’t know what else happens in the book.
Is this familiar to anyone? Thank you in advance.

I detailed what I remember about the book in the body of the post.

Have you considered emailing your teacher & asking about it? I doubt they’d mind.
Which country do you live in? Was it a children’s or teens’ book? Was the ‘storm’ a tsunami?

It’s similar to Piranesi (maze like structure with floods in different parts) but that is not a mother-daughter story.
