I had a lot of fun reading this book! It's very tropey but in a way I expect YA and despite the tropes it is very emotionally mature which I think helps pulls off the tropes it does include.  I like the characters, the romance feels realistic, overall a good book!

This is the most adorable yet absolutely gut-wrenching book I've read in a while. 

I'm not gonna lie, when it started off talking about a "superflu", I was about to come out from covid and say NOPE I DO NOT NEED TO GO THROUGH THAT AGAIN. Thankfully, the whole population wipe out already happened, so no need to go through 2020 on steroids.

Now the characters. Andrew and Jamie. The romance. Need I say more?

****spoiler part***

i just have to say, how cruel of you, erik j brown, to do that to me at the end. to take my scene of perfection, my moment of confession, take it away because of some ABSOLUTE ASSHOLES (insert multiple other insults), and then DESTROY MY ENTIRE HEART NOT EVEN 10 PAGES LATER. I am flabbergasted, and I am destroyed.

A sweet and emotional story about 2 teens trying to survive in a post apocalyptic world. There's plenty of humour and pop culture references and the characters are lovable and lucky. An overall great read.
