Mood Swings

Okay, I think I found my second favorite book of the year. In a world too similar to our own, Jenlena (yes, that name is just terrible) and her roommate are doing their best. The animals rose up against the humans during The Siege and had to be put down, the Moon Bethehems have a weather cult in which participation is on the rise. And a white male billionaire is going to build a time machine to send people back to introduce solar panels to the folks in the Industrial Age, thus avoiding the “weather”. He's going to do this because no one, including himself is going to tell him he can't. Jenlena will date him for awhile. This reminded me very much of [b:No One Is Talking About This 53733106 No One Is Talking About This Patricia Lockwood https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1601474686l/53733106.SY75.jpg 84057345], which I also loved. It's like a very smart sad girl novel that pokes fun of just how stupid we have all become. And that there is NO WAY out. The only way out is through. And sometimes that means cosplaying as a dalmatian for paying customers who miss their pet deeply. This book made me almost cry. I loved it.
