While I'd love to keep reading the series to dive deeper into the concepts and characters, I'm not sure I have the energy for all the trauma porn.

I went into it skeptical because I have come to hate gendered plagues in books that only wipe out women or men and there is no discussion of anyone outside the gender binary but that issue resolved itself for me. I didn't HATE this but it annoyed me more than it didn't.
Plus
The dog, who was kind of a hero and was holding the whole book up, is killed. It's terrible.
This is the 1st book in a trilogy and it does not give you a satisfactory wrap-up at the end so would not work as a standalone. I know I won't read the other books after this so I went to wikipedia and read the plot summaries and now I can move on with my life. But 1st I need to watch the movie adaptation which has Tom Holland and Daisy Ridley as the teenage main characters. So fun.

i wonder if the bioessentialism of the noise will be discussed in later books. i hope so but i won't be surprised if it doesn't happen.
