dark funny hopeful reflective sad tense
It didn't quite rock my world like the first book did, but I'd happily read another ten installments of this series.

There was one part that I found shocking and entertaining, but it all kind of resolved very neatly and conveniently, in a way that didn't hit to me as hard as the original. Original Ambrose always kind of sucked and in a sense it was interesting to see Original Ambrose and Original Kodiac know each other but it was a little to instalovey for me, I would have been more interested with a story more focused on the settlement. I was the most interested
wondering what was going on with the son/brother and then when he shot Ambrose.
And then the title scene (
the "brightness between us" being a nuclear bomb exploding around Original Ambrose and Original Kodiac....
was also fucked up and did emotionally hit me a little bit.
