    These are suburban poems describing places we go to all the time. But they creep beneath the surface...

I think this book is a great take on a world catastrophe event and seeing it from 2 different points of view from 2 of the most isolated places.
I felt it started off really slowly and picked up a few chapters in.
The writing is fantastic, you really feel as if your in the Arctic and space.
I loved the fact that in the end the last people alive already had a connection and they didn't know who eachother were when they connected by radio..... Its was bittersweet I think.
I do wish however that at the end of the book, when they land on earth i would have liked to know what happened to earth. That's going to bug me!!

"I read this every winter. It has one of the best female protagonists I've ever read in a book. There are very few books I can think of that start out so small and unassuming and end so big and heroic. The lead character goes from being an inquisitive, quiet girl to a violent, powerful force by the end of the book, all while solving a murder that keeps unfolding new twists and turns. This book makes me feel strong. Like I could fight a bad guy on a burning barge then jump into to arctic freezing water to swim to my safety as it explodes. Which she does, in the book."
