There’s only a few elements to pinpoint the timeline, but it just feels rushed and not at the same time. There’s an element of Lord of the Flies (but better) and Station Eleven to it all.

- All-around well-crafted
- Interesting take on climate disaster
- Strong character development and establishment of POV
- A bit derivative of other authors and stories (general dystopia)
- I had trouble orienting myself in the setting for the first quarter or so
- Felt rushed towards the end
