I thought this was just okay. Despite an interesting premise and opening chapter, the story felt choppy and lacked the suspense that the synopsis seems to hint at. I didn't feel particularly attached to the characters either.

This book covers quite a few topics but not always in an effective way. For instance, it raises good points about environmentalism but also borders on preachy at times. The Hum was interesting though; I had no idea it really existed.

There are references to lockdown and I appreciate the book exploring how people cope/react to it. However, I didn't care to read about the characters breaking the law and breaching safety measures.

Overall, a quick and rather forgettable tale.
