I didn’t have high expectations for this book but struggled to put it down! I adored the slightly poetic writing style that allows all the character interactions to be meaningful. Despite being published in 2019, this book had many similarities to what is happening in 2020. A drawback of this novel is that it is hard to foster a deep connection with the characters. The author does not go into detail when it comes to many of their motives. This is somewhat understandable as it is a shorter story and I believe the author wanted to put more emphasis on how the apocalyptic situation affected the community as a whole. Overall, the book was a fun read but the ending felt rushed. 4.5/5 Stars @blissful_bookworm of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library
