![]() Go into this one knowing you'll get quite the story. ![]() but I think we can, as readers, make a pretty solid freaking guess. This is more character than plot driven and I do wish there was a little more to the world building or at least more detail as to how we came into this situation. With dystopia you always have the good and the bad, the will to go on and to also just give up entirely. It is scary to think that this world could actually progress in this manner. well, I suppose the nicer things in life. Everything is outdated and younger generations will never know of. I couldn't imagine living in a trash dump or ever even consider plastic being something of a commodity and to which they use to barter/buy. I'll tell ya though, this is a wake up call to what we as a society are doing to our planet. ![]() For me, it was a bit of a trudge to get through as the slow pacing, multiple POVs and ping ponging between past and present and the subject matter had zero levity within. As they have the tiny hands that can sort and pick through plastic easier than the large hands of the adults. But the evil here is in which they have to use plastic as currency while living in basically a large trash dump. TRASHLANDS is a somber story fighting for your family in a place dubbed Scrappalachia, home of Trashlands, a "dance club" owned by a very evil man. ![]()
