However, as this novel trudged on, the main character became increasingly annoying, entitled, and controlling. She believed her 'Earthseed' to be absolute truth, and continued to share it with anyone she could. I didn't like this at all. Then, toward the end, she, a newly eighteen-year-old girl embarks on a romantic and sexual relationship with a fifty-seven-year-old man; a man older than her father. No, this is not talked about much. Characters make some comments on the age gap, but I suppose in apocalypse, 'mature' children and old men make the best of pairs.
Also, it isn't even science fiction. Drugs and mental illness don't count.
