I found a lot of hope reading this novel as I witnessed the characters embody their humanity in the face of corruption and disaster. There was a lot of exposition which normally might bother me, but the explanation of plot really just gave me context to fully appreciate how each character responded to their environment and each other. I read climate fiction because I'm scared for the future and I want someone to show me how we can still live and love when it happens, and this book did just that.
I hadn't yet read Yours For The Taking, but felt I was able to fully enjoy this story anyway.
