OooOOOooo! I like this cover more than the one on the hardcover I read (US, library) Anyway, I am giving this a “Pick with reservations” and truly, this is a case of “Book, it‘s not you, it‘s me”. I just couldn‘t overcome the reluctance I felt, the chore it seemed to get this thing read!! I don‘t have time for this, too many books coming at me fast and fury with deadlines. I made it to page 200 before I skipped to the last 4 chapters ⬇️

BkClubCare So I “got” the story, I enjoyed the build, I was disappointed that Zelu‘s family wasn‘t more supportive, and I wish the best for the Humes… #May2025 Book48 2d
BarbaraBB Reading this now. So far so good - after 100 pages! 2d
BkClubCare @BarbaraBB - yay! It is intriguing…. If only I was on a beach with fewer distractions (or if sports was on TV so I could tune it out. 😆) 1d

I‘m sorry, it‘s probably me. I can‘t figure out what is happening and I don‘t care. Where is this going?! I am bailing at page 105 - if you can‘t capture my heart or curiosity by page 100, I am outtahere. I have too many books 📚 coming off hold and not enough time! 🕰️

Just finished, this being our last day of a 6-day trek from KS thru MO+KY to a wedding in TN. Homeward bound took us more southern thru AL, MS, LA to last night with friends in AR. These flowers are at her house 💖 I started this book in earnest, thanking the road gods that I can read in a moving vehicle. LOVED this! Adored Rainy & Lark, eager/scared to follow escape and trials of sailing “Flower” to freedom unknown. #May2025 Book42 #dystopia

I should have bailed but I always get caught up in the “how will it end?!” drama; by the time the end was in site, I was at risk of eyeball injury and annoyed with the inconsistency and repetition. #May2025 Book41

Kudos for multiple strong female characters.
