What did I just read? Like, it wasn’t bad? I actually ended up liking this so much, but so much of it felt like a fever dream. The premise is so fascinating and I have no shame in admitting it draws you in from page 1. It’s a quick read, but so much happens in EVERY chapter and on every page. 

Logan and Jessica turn into real people in a truly intense journey of self on their quest for sanctuary. I appreciated the growth and how it all came together in the end. However, it was a bit hard to like the characters because it was a bit difficult to understand if we were supposed to see them as people or concepts at first or if that’s just how it plays out. The plot twist at the end, though, was perfection. Completely unexpected and I was happily surprised. 

It’s actually a bit of a shame the other books in this series weren’t written.
