My choice from Book of the Month April 2023

This book was highly anticipated for me and it didn’t disappoint, it was more character driven but I enjoyed the parallels to current climate change effects and how the author portrayed humans’ survival, the abuse of fossil fuels, eroding coastlines and rising temperatures. The mood is eerie and apocalyptic if you pay attention to anything happening in our real world.

Featuring three POVs, each of the characters unique and interesting in their own way, you can’t help but to empathize with their dreams and struggles. The nonlinear timeline was well executed, the White Alice chapters made me take notes to figure out the mystery, I think they were my favorite.

The final climax of the novel brings all the characters together and leaves the story open-ended, personally I loved that impact and it left me inspired and hopeful for them!

Gritty and dark but hopeful, I give this 4 stars.
