Honestly, I imagined I was done with apocalypse books in a COVID world, but this was peddled to me hard as the queer romance I needed.
It was so much more than a romance or a post apocalypse book. As a YA novel, some themes were pretty obvious, but over all it was beautifully written and addressed such a difficult topic at a difficult time.
The main characters are adorable and they cry and it's real! That being said, I found their voices very similar so occasionally would have to look back and see whose chapter I was reading. As well, the side characters are a little under developed.
The romance doesn't feel forced. Instead it's just sweet moments and a whole lot of feelings.
Besides the cute queer romance though, this book was really well written as an adventure. While it may have followed some cliché storyline and themes, it never once felt forced or fake. Instead it was riveting. I was always unsure where the story would go next and the tense moments truly got my heart racing.
So while there may be flaws, it still receives a full 5 stars for me 🌟 What a fantastic novel, told with a gentle handle, for our very fragile world.
