This man just completely ignored everyone’s concerns for his child and everything that happens after that is COMPLETELY HIS FAULT. One of the most frustrating books I’ve ever read. Most hard headed character I’ve ever seen in Theo. Hated him. Also, did he not mention having another child in the beginning? And 11 year old? So Robin is the favorite. Got it.

Aika masentava kuvaus jostain lähitulevaisuudesta joka ei edes ole ilmastokriisikuvauksillaan niin kauana todellisuudesta. Paikoitellen minusta vähän ableistinen.
