I've wanted to read this since June 2019, and goodness is it worth the wait! This debut is gripping from the first sentence; I love the fast-pace and descriptive prose that paints a vivid picture in my mind. It's also got some biting humor that is right up my alley and made me laugh out loud a couple of times.

"So. You’re the last person I’ll ever speak to on Earth.
Don’t be so morbid."

Linguistically, I find the book super interesting as well. Language changes over time, and I like that the author created a version of English that could evolve in 1,000 years. It's a fantastic addition to the worldbuilding and lands the reader in the same confused state as Andra. I feel so invested in this story because of this - like I was there alongside here, and can't wait to read the full book!
