Several plot points hit me like a gut punch, but in the end the plot felt rushed, like they'd run out of book to struggle in, rather than running out of struggle.
One thing that was missing for me was the acknowledgement of trans people, and how they were impacted by a virus that was more deadly for women. In fact, they might have held some clue- was the virus more deadly based on about organs, or hormones, or purely capacity for pregnancy?

It's not the most amazing, exciting or captivating apocalyptic read and I'm not in any rush to continue reading but I do plan on it eventually.
Might come back tomorrow and revise this review after sitting on it for awhile.

This book revolves around an apocalypse situation that deals heavily with female and child mortality. Knowing that there are at least 10x the amount of men left than women will let you have an idea of some of the things you will see in this book. However it's not very graphic or gratuitous at all.kat1105's review against another edition
