Camp Zero by Michelle Min Sterling

kristinj1's review against another edition

This book was a little too close to home for me. There's been a major climate crisis that not a lot of the world survived, it helped to have a lot of money and live in a separate, sanitized, closed off community if you wanted to survive, and young women were forced to be sex workers in order to survive. 100% triggering for me, not something I wanted to spend my time reading.

I enjoyed the story telling and general plot line, but I loved the social commentary and took quite a lot away from that aspect. It stayed pretty interesting consistently, but I don't think it was the kind of book I'd put front and center on my bookshelf to rave about.
