“This is the Way the World Ends” By Jen Wilde
📕 Edition: ebook & Audiobook
While I didn't exactly fall head over heels for it, I didn't despise it either. The story took its sweet time to pick up speed and felt a bit scattered. The action didn't kick in until halfway through, which had me craving a faster pace.
My main gripe was the repetitive emphasis on the protagonist's identity as an "autistic lesbian." It was repeated many many times, like, I get it already.
Overall, this one was just a “meh” for me.
Thank you @NetGalley, Jen Wilde and Wednesday Books for providing me with this ARC in exchange for my honest review.
