Art was so good and the concept was very interesting but the execution was a bit lacking; there were lots of plot holes and it was a bit rushed. Love marc, honeysuckle and templeton tho

Couldn’t make it through half of this. The visual craft is fantastic, but it feels very much like any other dystopia, though with a really incredulous method of people being wiped out. On top of that, stories where queer people immediately die—which is not a spoiler, it’s in the opening lines—just feel very suspect to me, in this day and age. And from that point on it was emotionally manipulative and gruesome to try to make up for really tropey narrative beats I couldn’t connect with. For the life of me I don’t know why these dystopias interest people so much. Read a few, you’ve read them all.
