My book club chose thus book and I fully expected it to be mid at best but I really loved this! A murder mystery on an island with the extinction of the human raceonly hours away, the stakes couldn't have been higher, the plot moved at the perfect speed. I loved the ways the author used memory and the lack thereof to build tension. Throughout an otherwise fun plot we also explored authoritarianism and autonomy and familial bonds. This was so unexpected and I'm so glad I read it!

Way more sci-fi/horror/dystopia than I expected, rather than a simple murder mystery. Lots of really fun unexpected twists!

Objectively well done - this story was layered and went in a direction I didn't expect. I just don't think it was 100% up my street.
