4.5/5 stars

I found it boring other than a couple bits, but those parts didn’t make up for the mundane.

Devastating.

Another apocalyptic book completed. Tender, beautiful and haunting. Not a great deal of plot or progress but I think that's the point. Different and interesting.

DID NOT FINISH: 13%

I can't deal with this writing. Intentionally bad punctuation, and sentences that just go on and on and on. Can't get myself to enjoy it.
adventurous medium-paced
