Wow, this book brought up way more than I expected it to. Jimmy’s panic and anxiety was incredibly relatable. Not sure if Alice is planning anything else in this universe, but I’d love to see what happens next for the boys if The Ark.

i've only read loveless so far in the world of oseman novels, and i liked this a lot more than loveless. it was unflinchingly human, bordering on absurdity at points, and i had so much fun and so many emotions while reading
