Leave the World Behind

Gripping writing, I liked the omnipotent interjections about things happening elsewhere, but the slow burn and thriller aspect to lead to an open ended resolution at the end which was a bit of a disappointment- especially since there was so much build up to the mystery.
There's a lot of crude/sexual descriptions, but I didn't mind it as much since most YA end of the world tropes sometimes forget to mention the crudeness of humans/”animal needs”. The feeling of isolation was also invoked and I did like that. Very vanilla end of the world trope though, so it shall stay a 3 star.
