Just too sad for me right now. I knew they were all going to die, that's the premise, but I couldn't take the emotions.

3.5 stars.

I am still thinking about this book which read more like non-fiction. Definitely a heavier story than Daisy Jones. I really wanted MORE of Opal, MORE of Nev. I know we were just getting Sunny's perspective, but I needed more first person narrative from the two main characters. Such a good story for today's political climate. Really focused on how much has changed and yet nothing has.
