cool idea but dont let darcy coates write romance ever again, i could not for the life of my understand why the main characters fell for each other (i will just say its trauma bonding amidst the apocalypse)

This was predictable and very slow. Written as YA horror, it read like YA drama with a supernatural element.

I really couldn’t get into the story. It felt repetitive and bland. Dorran felt like he was written as an old Victorian-era man, who should have been 90 years old…but was somehow in his 20’s maybe? Clare is a pushover and unable to fend for herself but by far the better of the two MC’s.

I wouldn’t say this was predictable, but I wasn’t shocked by the surprises written in toward the end (can’t say twists, because they didn’t feel like twists—they just felt like story continuations).

Overall, meh. I wouldn’t go out of my way to pick up further books in this series if they’re similar to this one.

I really enjoyed this book! It had a bit of a slow start because I didn't fully understand what was happening. However, once the book got going it was worth it! I love Darcy Coates!
