When I read the blurb, I thought this book was going to be exactly what I was looking for. A relatable main character that I could follow the actions of as were similar people.
That was true to an extent, Sophie and I are almost too similar in a way but I’ve never experienced an apocalypse, but then I’m not sure she has either. I also spend a lot of time on social media, mindlessly scrolling but to read about it so constantly in the book got boring. It was repetitive with how detailed it got each time when nothing changed. When they went to the beach house, I was hooked more. I relate to the experiences but not much actually came from it. Too drunk to remember the confrontation, and Sophie was still the same character at the end of the book as she was at the start.
I found myself rooting for Sophie through it all, I know how she feels.
