It’s strange to read this in 2024, while a pandemic continues to kill and disable people, while the world moves on and ignores it. Strange to read it on the brink of possibly another pandemic. Strange to think that we’re only ever one small misstep away from a world like the one in this book. I loved the story, the writing style, and the characters. But mostly I loved the reflection on what it means to survive, and how we can’t do it alone. I can’t wait to watch the show.
