The Shutouts by Gabrielle Korn
Did not finish book. Stopped at 52%.
At over halfway through it was still unclear exactly what this book was about. And yes, it’s clear that climate change awareness and activism play a part.
I wanted to like the book; it’s an interesting premise. But the book itself is not interesting enough to make it worth the slog of getting to whatever may be the author’s real point.
It becomes clear with some digging that this is something of a sequel. The book should be marketed as such, because my suspicion is that it makes more sense when read that way. It is not effective or enjoyable as a standalone.
