After finishing The Never-Ending End of the World I had to take a few deep breaths and stop everything I was doing for a few minutes. I just had to recover. There are very few books that I say I want to read or listen to again. This was one of those. Before the year is over I will definitely go through this book again. I loved it. n

The story is complex but easy to understand. Something happened to the world where people are living out a moment over and over, on a loop. The main character Coco calls them loopers. Everything around the looper remains in the condition it was at the time the loop took place. Years later the loop will still be in the same shape.

“Never disturb a looper” this was learned the hard way by Coco and many others. The loops were such an interesting concept and I love how so many questions I would have had ended up answered organically in the story.

The story follows Coco over the course of decades. You see the people she comes across and the life she builds in this post-apocalyptic world. You will love Coco and everyone she meets. Everything from the writing to the narration was perfect in this book.

I loved the way the book ends. I didn’t know how this story was going to wrap up and I really love the way it came together. It’s not at all what I expected and it was a better conclusion than anything I can think of.n

I also want to shout out the acknowledgment section of this book. Author Ann Christy really pours her heart out and explains so much she personally went through. Her sincerity made me really want to scream about how much I love this book.

Don’t wait any longer. Go check out The Never-Ending End of the World now.

Final Score 5/5
