This book was something I did not expect, in a good way.
Sophie has graduated, and is right in the middle of that existential crisis of 'what am I gonna do with my life' and 'how am I ever going to be able to buy a house in this economy', right at the moment a purple crack appears in the sky, which triggers existential crises of 'is the world ending' and 'why is no one as panicked as I am' etc. Very relatable for me, a millennial with eco-anxiety.

The best thing about this book is that it uses these two different types of existential threats to Sophie to show how much we tend to focus on things that don't matter (boys) because of trauma, and how we use the internet to escape from the anxiety and depression the trauma and climate crisis (or possible apocalypse). Smart and well done.
The writing was also impeccable: sharp and feverish.
