I really enjoyed this first novel from Elly Bangs, couldn't put it down.
The post-apocalyptic adapted environments are well built and depressing. The alternating point of view keeps you intrigued and guessing what's to happen next. There is action, violence, tenderness, romance, reflection, existential dread/revelation.
Bangs, admittedly, started writing this in high school as a short story and it was published 18 years later. I think Bangs' evolution as a person through writing this book is clearly shown in the evolution of her characters.
It's a beautifully written book and I will be reading more from Bangs.
