Really liked the first half then kinda dozed off...
A powerful and creative allegory that could have done a better job standing on its own from a story perspective, but which I would still recommend.
An interesting and thoughtful climate disaster story from the perspective of the younger generation, which is worth spending some time in.
This book is like if The Great Gatsby met Lord of the Flies and the rich people facing total catastrophe just... stayed rich and selfish. Next!
