Rated The Shutouts 8/10

<div>I got this book from Netgalley, not realizing it is set in the same world as an already existing book that I have not read (<em>Yours For The Taking</em>). Luckily, I don't think it is vital to have already read it to enjoy <em>The Shutouts</em>.<br><br>All of the characters here are interesting, even when they are making decisions that literally had me saying YIKES aloud. Set in the near-ish future, when all our climate change problems have somewhat passed the point of no return, each of these people are just trying to survive the best way that they can. The environmental concerns are very realistic, and I hope it makes readers give our potential impending disasters some thought. Even if we can mitigate damage, even if our future doesn't shake out exactly like this, it's going to be difficult nonetheless.</div><div><br></div>
