I didn't like the main character, she was awful. And while I got used to the lack of punctuation marks I didn't understand why they weren't used. I would have liked more information on what had happened to cause them to go into the bunker. It feels like a lot is unexplained.

slow-paced

2.0

Boring and a slog. Only finished out of spite. The punctuation gimmick makes everything even more monotone. Maybe that's the point? 
Why is being infertile the worst thing that could happen to a woman? 
CW for SA and anti-abortion rhetoric.
