This book was sad, then it got sadder, and then it was the saddest.  As a middle grade read it’s intense. It reminds me of like On the Road but for kids? The end of the world and it’s just this girl and her dad. There’s so much we never learn and that was hard for me. I felt the loneliness and sadness and it was almost too much to get through to finish and enjoy the book.
