But when everyones phones start to ring during prom, Lucy knows something terrible has happenedsomething new. Decades of climate change have taken their toll, religious extremism is spreading, refugees have nowhere left to turn, and terrorism is common. But this is worse. Far worse.

This book is a rollercoaster ride of angst, trauma, love, loss, and survival. Our protagonist watches as civilization as we know it steadily tears itself apart, and eventually she has to come to terms with how someone she loves played a part in it all.

This was a page turner, for sure, but was also haunting in terms of the what if's it offers up.

Actually reading Sovereign, which is more middle school age. A story of survival, great idea to start a flight with a book that starts with a crash landing!

kgriffith I‘m sure you‘re just shocked that I picked this one, too. 😉 5y
