How High We Go in the Dark by Sequoia Nagamatsu
4.5
adventurous challenging dark emotional hopeful inspiring mysterious sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes

This was so beautiful 
I feel like the main character was literally the entire human race 
And you get so many different perspectives of first contact, a pandemic, the science world and the art world during the apocalypse etc. It was really cool. 
The book focuses on east-asian specifically japanese characters and a lot of it is set in the bay area which was also awesome.
