I need these boys to get it together. I like these books a lot but I would give them each 500 dollars to have a convo about feelings or admit they're gay.

I love this book. The pockets of humanity after apocalypse are fascinating to me and this is a great example of that. The friendships good and bad, the relationships, the weird family. I love so much in this book, it's also real fucked up and dark but I lover this book.
