Wow, I thought this was going to be a story about a whale, but

half way an apocalypse just broke loose???

the first half of the book was pretty slow, but it really picked up in the second half! Also cool bi rep :D 
The only thing that kinda bugged me about this book was the way the author described the female characters, it was often very sexualizing o~o
