A review by rmannion
The Blue Book of Nebo by Manon Steffan Ros

dark emotional hopeful reflective sad slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.25

wow, YA books deal with some heavy topics these days

but a very pretty, very sombre, slightly disturbing novel that poses the question of whether a dystopia can be someone's utopia, after all

very poignant and relevant post-lockdown
