Robots still exist, they have all types, for most basic tasks. While their situation is bleak, they do a life of luxury. The adults are still searching for a cure but no progress has been made.

Their parents had them quite late in life so they don’t expect them to be around forever. They spend their days exploring, treasure hunting, learning and preparing for the day that they are the last two. Nature is doing it’s best to recover from the thrashing humans gave it. There are only a couple hundred people left. Lowrie is our story teller and she is an exceptional character, as is Shen, her best friend. Well shit, Lauren James, could you have thrown our mc’s into a more threatening environment? I don’t think so. And when the adults start getting sick, Lowrie and Shen have to decide how far they are willing to go to save everything. There are no more viable eggs, this is it. Now only a small community is left, still trying to find a way to save the world. After a virus caused infertility world wide, the world went into a state of shock, then chaos and then it became the new normal. Lowrie and Shen are the last two kids born on Earth, they are the last hope for humanity. – Have I mentioned science yet, in case you missed it SCIENCE. – Set in future London after humans have almost been wiped out. – Very slow burn romance that in no way over shadows the themes of the story. – A robot named Mitch, who isn’t able to communicate with his peers. – Female and male main characters but it’s told from female’s point of view. There are so many good things in this book that I might just going to make dot points. She has such a distinct way of writing female characters, science, and diversity, that I think I could pick her books just by reading a couple of chapters.

I fucking love her!!!! I love her brand of Sci-Fi. Lauren James!!! What a magnificent author.
