There are some post-apocalyptic books that do an amazing job of not making the plot just post-apocalyptic.

This book’s expansive cast of characters, who are living in a world ravished by climate collapse and capitalism, make lives for themselves. I don’t Know what it means about me that that’s a beautiful and needed idea… but here I am. Can’t wait to re-read this soon.

Quote: “But I couldn't despise Burke; I could've been Burke. That's what I believe. Maybe I still could. What scares me is the notion we are all one rotten moment, one crushed hope or hollow stomach from stuffing someone blameless in a cage.”
