I expected this to develop more than it did in terms of plot points, I feel like I’ve only read the first half of a book and I’m left wanting to read on about what is going on. It felt quite Station Eleven but for me lacked any real plot that could have been really interesting. Also
The teeth falling out was both horrifying and my favourite part because I have had many anxiety dreams about that happening and this captured it perfectly
