hm
feel like there are some missed content warnings here,,,,,
on the note of the warnings, most were so indulgent and unnecessary in the grand scheme of the book. additionally, the author wrote about sex and bodies like a man would :/

Ah, this was disappointing. I loved the idea: a climate apocalypse, desert settings, and a cult. What isn't to love? This book, apparently. The characters were insufferable--not even in a fun way. The prose was pretty, but it got to be overbearing at a certain point. I think this book could have been about 100 pages shorter.

Moderate: Addiction and Toxic relationship
