Resumen del Editor

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?

Awesome sequel!!

Spoilers kinda
I loved this book… honestly I think I might like it more than the 1st one. All the different characters were great additions. It was serious and funny. Rocky horror was definitely one of my favorite characters and I’m so glad he got a happy ending.

Andrew is so clumsy I can’t believe he got hurt again lol.

The complexity of Andrew and Jamie’s character was elaborated on and I’m glad everything turned out how it did. Especially for Jamie’s sake.

I’m glad it didn’t got into detail about their sex life. They are minors for f’s sake. They are happy and together at the end so what do you think happened?? Gosh

Apocalypse Gays

I love this genre so much now thanks to this series. these characters grew on me really quickly

Amazing Sequel!

This sequel offered a fun story with awesome character development—not just for the two protagonists, but also for new and returning character —including a strong transgender character.

Lots of unexpected twists and turns and of course funny and emotional too.

Note to Hollywood: This book and its predecessor will make a great movie or Netflix series!!!!

Better than the first one!

I knew this author's writing would only get better! It was absolutely touching and I'm already itching to listen to it a second time. The characters and the scenes are just moving and I cried more than a couple of times. I was also yelling at my phone for Jamie and Andrew to just talk already lol. Really good book and I've already recommended it to my friends

Love to LGBTQIA+ Rep

I’m non-binary/ace spec and love romance stories. (Because I’m lonely-) I loved it <3 all the drama and oh the sad deaths to the lovey doves moments!

Great Second Book!

I loved this story - it has it all: adventure, romance, drama. There is great post-apocalyptic representation too.

Favorite of 2024!

I have been beyond excited for this book….. and let me tell you! It didn’t let me down. No doubt in my mind that it is one of my favorite books of 2024!

really good follow up to book 1

great narration, really a good story and written well. Brings closure to book one.

Wanted more Andrew and Jamie

I LOVED the first book, partly because it was two boys against the post apocalyptic world, slow burning for each other! This one is more like two boys arguing, then being states away from each other the rest of the book. Very little of what I really enjoyed from the first book. So disappointed!

A Decent Sequel

A decent sequel to "All that's left in the World."

Starting off after the end of Book One, Brown takes us through the world left over after the flu. Continuing on with Jamison and Andrew, they face new threats as one of the major enemies from Book One return. Now working to get back to the starting point, Andrew and Jamie find themselves with new friends, new family, and a new threat to their happy ever after.

Overall, I think this book was a decent sequel. A new, diverse cast of characters and surprising excitement from meeting new groups, and finding family in the aftermath of the pandemic. It made me laugh at places (especially with Andrew), cry in other places, and almost make me rage quit at one particular part...but thankfully a kid has some gumption. Overall, I think this book serves as a decent sequel to "All that's left in the World", and like the ending of the first book, this book's ending leaves me wanting another book. So, Mr. Brown, let's make this a trilogy!
