mikaiya 's review for:

The Last Neanderthal by Claire Cameron
4.0

This is a very interesting sort of science-y speculative fiction. I was completely engrossed and blew through it. I think my initial opinion that it has some flaws is valid, but overall I found it engaging and exceedingly realistic. The modern story pales in comparison to the original Girl's, but I've rarely seen such an apt description of the loneliness and misery post-birth whether modern or ancient.

A good read. Possible TOB contender... but likely to be overshadowed by books later this year.
