I liked the beginning, and then I got bored, and then I got interested again, and then I was disappointed.  The book ends like it’s going to have a sequel, but I don’t think it’s planned to be a series, so it just feels unfinished.  It’s supposed to be this feminist-thriller-climate change-body horror variation of Lord of the Flies, and some of that comes through, but then it just ends.

The setting here is immediately weird and a little hard to understand, but fascinating, and I really want to know what’s going on and how it works.  I still feel that way having finished the book.  Good?  Yes.  Easy?  No.
