Publisher Description
What If It's Us meets They Both Die at the End in this sequel to the beloved postapocalyptic queer YA adventure romance All That's Left in the World by USA Today bestselling author Erik J. Brown.
Perfect for fans of Adam Silvera, Alex London, and Heartstopper by Alice Oseman.
After a long and treacherous journey south, Andrew and Jamie have finally found safety in the Florida Keys. But they soon learn that safety doesn't always mean happily ever after.
Settling into life in the Islamorada colony with other survivors of the bug, Andrew believes they've finally found themselves a home, even a family. But anxious Jamie is less comfortable in their new community and is eager to return north to keep the promise they made to their friend Henri—to bring her to the colony and reunite her with her daughter. Besides, would it really be so bad to find someplace just for the two of them?
When a hurricane and a shocking betrayal force them to leave the colony in search of new shelter, it brings their tensions to a head—and puts them in the path of some old enemies. Andrew and Jamie must set aside their differences to survive once more and find a new home. But what if "home" means different things to each of them?
Customer Reviews
Just as amazing as the first!
I didn’t know it was possible to mourn the ending of a book series so intensely. Every single aspect, every intentional detail, every character and their story is as good as it gets! I’ll miss you and your world, Andrew and Jamie. Thank you Erik for letting me experience it.
Fantastic
*SPOILERS FOLLOW* spoilers humans last warning. So I loved that the story was continued. I fell in love with the first book and was beside myself when I seen the second one was confirmed. And it was wonderful having some closure for a few parts of the story. Now I did have a couple of small gripes, one being I was a little disappointed they didn’t get to have port in the story. But then I remembered they’re like 16/17 so that gets a pass. Too many adult books have been through my fingers! Second is the ending seemed a tad rushed and I wasn’t a fan of the amount of time they spent either separated or fighting towards the end. Butttt all that gets a pass since I did enjoy that Jamie didn’t kill the dbag himself and that they did after all of this end up exactly where they started and made their home together. Great story and I wish I could get more of them but I understand there are other stories to be told. But if you ever return to this world I hope these boys make some sort of an appearance. Again though, fantastic story.
