as if the climate apocalypse wasn’t enough, now they are fundamentally altering what it means to be human.. this book is dystopian in a way that is worryingly believable

i like how short the chapters are

… these characters are fascinating. i am filled with dread.
also i think the author of this book would have been friends w tolkien because man can he talk about plants

getting whiplash going back and forth between the searing social/environmental commentary and the devastatingly sweet budding (but ultimately doomed) gay romance
