This was deliciously subversive. It’s like a dark, DARK “Midnight Library,” and so many chapters expanded on thoughts I’ve had myself in painstaking detail, especially the chapter with the Extinction group, and to a lesser degree, the Close of Day home (whose ending was so macabre that I burst out laughing).

I’m frequently called Debbie Downer, but now I feel validated and seen. I even took a picture of a particular paragraph that resonated so much.

Loved it. Five stars. And I hope to emulate Kay and Cyril’s marriage.
