At least I can count on Riley Sager to not be boring.

“The wasteland may be dangerous” girl where? We’ve seen nothing dangerous happen since like chapter 2.

I guess it’s my fault for expecting some sort of plot in a post apocalyptic romance book.

Girl what do you mean you’re not speaking up about your unsafe living conditions and letting your parents drag you back there.

I’m having a good time with this because I’m reminding myself this is a ya thriller and there are messages about control here for young people. However If this was an adult novel I’m not sure I could handle how stupid all these characters are. Not a one of them even makes an excuse to do literally anything else?

I don’t hate it

This is goooood.

A book about the apocalypse but nothing’s fucking happening?

The way she went missing…. Let’s use our brain.

I don’t hate this story but I’m struggling with motivation to pick it up and I think I’ve realized why. Things are happening around June and to June but she is pretty passive in her own story. Like do something, demand answers. Do anything.

Oh no this is already annoying me bc why are you sobbing over a man you literally haven’t spoken 3 words to? What do you mean you love him?

Margo is giving me anxiety. Messy messy messy.

God I love mess.

Ari is a bit too ~quirky~ for my taste but it’s actually not putting me off this book.

I love mess!

wtf??

Sometimes I think I’m too quick to DNF a book lately but then I pick up one I’m hooked on right away. It’s not me, it’s the books. Anyway, this is great so far and I expect an unhinged time.

I fear I’m not into this. Diaos was horrible to Mira and the humans all of book one and he put his people in danger. And now he sees Anya and he’s immediately obsessed. I just… can we just take some time to grow these characters damn.

This isn’t really grabbing me yet.
