just finished reading this for the second time and i swear it got better. i love the storyline and the subtle build of the feelings. the plot is presented really well. one thing i will say though, some words are repetitive - later in the book i started noticing more of 'i did this, i did that' sentences, with not much variety between words or phrases. i love the book regardless though, i might buy it (the first and second times i've read it i've gotten it from a library).

This book is so good!! It focuses a lot on the inner-monologues of the characters while also being action-packed. The chapters bounce between two POVs so you really get to know both characters. It’s almost freakishly real, especially after Covid, but not too similar to the point where it’s particularly disturbing (in my opinion). Some parts of this book are disturbing, such as violence, the general nature of the “super-flu”, and a lot of bodies, but it’s also a post-apocalyptic story so it kinda comes with the package. The romance is subtle and not the main focus of the story which is also nice because, for once, the conflict in the story does not revolve around being LGBTQ+. However, I do think it correctly addresses the concerns and conflicts that would arise as an LGBTQ+ person in the apocalypse. Overall, this book is well-written, emotional, balanced, and entertaining.

This is one of those books that will leave you feeling both fulfilled and empty by the end. So much happens in this book and yet by the end you still find yourself wanting more. This is one of the best books I have read in a long time and I recommend it to anyone who knows how to read. 5/5⭐️ will be reading this again! P.s. this one's a tear jerker, I am currently crying.
