A review by bookishlyjessi
Odessa by Jonathan Hill

3.0

*Thank you to the publisher for sending me an e-arc through Netgalley, this does not affect my review.*

The premise of this sounded so intriguing, 3 kids going on an adventure through a post apocalyptic world to find their mum, sounds fab but something was missing for me.

The characters were really not likeable at all and half of the book was just them bickering, which I completely understand is something that happens between siblings (I have 3 siblings, trust me, I get it) but, it's not fun to read about.

I would have liked a little more backstory on the world and the gangs, what are their motives? What are they fighting for? There wasn't really any explanation which meant I didn't really care.

I felt it was slightly longer than it needed to be which led to it feeling like it was dragging however, I really enjoyed the art style and I loved seeing the f/f romance.

Overall I think it's pretty average but I would be open to reading the continuation.
