I was interested in this book throughout but it felt like there was no ending. I assume that was the intention but so much was left unsaid that I feel like I only read a fraction of a book.

Not what I would typically pick up. This book was very interesting and made me think a lot about the future of the US, society, and the planet. The book started off kind of flow and the moved super quick at the end. I’m still not really sure what I think about the book over all.

I found Grant pitiable, White Alice cult-like, and “Rose” eclipsed in her own POV by her flashbacks

This was a Fascinating world and idea for a plot. I’m not sure why it didn’t totally connect for me. I just wasn’t very invested in the characters and their survival and thriving. But I think the world building and plot were interesting.

There were a lot of things that left me confused or disappointed in the end. I have no clue what the point of Grant’s POV was. It seemed to not really add anything at all to the story? I wonder if there will be a second book to tie up the loose ends of this one. I didn’t really care for any of the characters. Rose was alright but not a character I really loved. The beginning of the book was very slow. There were a couple things I saw coming. Overall it wasn’t horrible but it wasn’t great. Wouldn’t read it again.
