Am I going to continue the series? Yes because it ended on something that I want to know the outcome of 😂

This was a super fast, fairly intense read. It was a bit instalove-y, but I can almost forgive it considering the circumstances. Definitely interested to see where the rest of this story goes, because it kinda feels like we’ve barely scratched the surface…

A fantastic apocalyptic novel. Definitely not what I was expecting for a book with young adult MCs but it was the perfect blend of adventure, mystery, chilling suspense, heart-wrenching sorrow, and mind-blowing sexual chemistry. B. B. Easton has done an amazing job with this series and I cannot wait to read the next book in the trilogy.

4.0

I really enjoyed this apocalyptic love story. It is a unique take on this subgenre of romance because it takes place the days before the apocalypse rather than during or post the world-ending event. It shows how fear can strip people of their humanity and how hope can be the key to survival. Our characters specifically our heroine are not ina good place mentally during the story and what I liked is that while the hero certainly helps with those struggles. He does not "cure" them.
