I am a little torn on how to rate and review this one, if I am being honest. At the start, I was suuuper into it, especially because the chapters are nice and short, and it alternates between past and present, with some other snippets interspersed (like conversations July's therapist, lists she'd made, etc.). So it moves quickly, and obviously the whole mystery of where the heck everyone went is compelling! I enjoyed reading about what had happened to July, and the lengths she was going to find everyone now. But the turn that things took... well, it's hard to really say much without giving anything away, but I'll try. I appreciated what the author was doing with the story, it just seemed like the way it went, it needed more buildup perhaps? Or just something additional that the story didn't offer. So as the conclusion unfurled, I didn't feel completely satisfied by it? Maybe if there had been an epilogue or something? I mean it was still very readable, and I liked what the author was trying to do, I just don't know that it *fully* worked? Still a good book, though!
