4 Hearts
Any proper apocalyptic story is going to be bleak as the daily, if not hourly, struggle to survive weighs heavily like an unbearable burden.
Here, Finn’s situation is no different, but he bravely takes a risk to help his sick sister, venturing into the dangerous city to scavenge for supplies. Unfortunately, he encounters an unsavory group who’s also looking for some rare treasures, but avoids death by the kindness of a stranger named Spencer.
This showcases perfectly that despite harsh reality, the sense of hopelessness that’s just about to overwhelm all, a simple act changes everything - outlook, expectation, goals - and gives one the courage to fight for the happiness that basically seemed forever lost.
Realistic dystopian vibe where nothing is sugar coated, this still had great feels and a nice dose of sexy. This ends perfectly as that hard fought win brings some much needed light to so much darkness.
Thank you to the author/publisher for a copy in exchange for a honest review

Lovely review R! I'm not a fan of apocalyptic story tropes... too depressing, but glad that this worked for you.. 👍

Thanks Vanna! It can definitely get you down but there is a strong HFN!! I guess that's all one can hope for during the apocalypse right??

Oooohhhh, this book is already on my to-read shelf. Great spoilerfree review, R! You're not giving away much but still made me want to read it even more. :)
