It's apocalypse meets Anne of Green Gables. A found family of kids and adults lives on an island off the coast of Maine (my guess is that it's a smaller island in Casco Bay, but the location is the right mix of vague and accurate for my pedantic brain) after a virus wipes out most of humanity. Gabe discovers a survivor named Relle and starts to dream of something more being out there.

I think one of the strengths of this book is the first crush feeling that Gabe has. It feels relatable and accurate. I also liked the references to Anne of Green Gables, although if you aren't familiar the book will feel fine. 

Having read mostly YA and adult books lately, I expected the story to go a little darker than it did. It's probably fine for the age group, but I bet some kids will be wondering why it didn't go that dark.
