There was so much potential. So much. I can't believe this was a finalist for two different major awards - it seems unfinished, with so much left to be filled in.
this sly little novel stuck it's teeth in me during my time reading it. it's marvelous
Reading this book while wildfires rage in Hawaii and Canada and a hurricane bears down on LA for the first time in memory. An allegorical tale of the end of the world and the ennui of previous generations ruining the future. 3.5 rounded up.
This has landed in my top 5 favorite books. Chilling, entertaining and most definitely thought provoking. The stark realities the author intertwines seamlessly keep the novel grounded, as we navigate biblical comparisons to modern life and generational/familial conflict. It's nice to interact with content where gen z isn't slandered for being chronically online and incapable of surviving on their own, rather, as adaptive and collected individuals while witnessing disasters of biblical proportions.
