At first, I thought this book was a bit too similar to Station Eleven. However, the further into it I got, I found myself entranced, and even moved a few times. This book became something quite interesting and engaging. I’d recommend it for a light but beautiful read.

Well, It was a great book for 300 pages. I wished for more at the end but it was satisfactory and a good read.

oof. Well. Um. So this is NOT the book to read during a pandemic, unless it is the perfect book to read during a pandemic.

Combined some of my favourite elements of stories such as coming of age, epidemics, fantastical concepts and full of emotion. This book sucks you right in.

I would’ve given this book 3.5-4 stars if I would’ve read it when it was published (Jan 2019) it was decently good and interesting- but considering it VERY much gave me coronavirus governmental shut down quarantine vibes I gave it 5 stars, it was relatable. Throughout this entire book I kept thinking “yep, we did that” or “that’s familiar” & it made me want to keep reading to see what other similarities I could find.
