Salt and Fury: A New Adult Dystopian Romance by Liz Shipton My rating: 5 of 5 stars Bird, the main female character is a sloppy sailer with a drinking problem. But she's super lovable. The main male character Sargo is the most patient human on the entire planet and just so happens to be Bird's sailing instructor. Bird gets herself expelled from school after Sargo finds out she was drunk during class. After some spectacularly bad decisions, Bird ends up making some bad black market deals and has to flee the city she lives in with Sargo on his sailboat. Her brother, who was thought to be dead, reached out to her for a job and they sail in the direction of Alluvium when he is located. They encounter pirates and and all sorts of crazy stuff along the way. This is kind of a slow burn on Bird's side as far as romance goes. You get the idea that Sargo is into Byrd but it is not expressly mentioned. There are some spicy scenes in the book, but they are carried out through Birds dreams and do not actually happen. There is one spicy scene where Byrd encounters Sargo "relieving some tension" by himself and she takes a little gander and does some "finger painting" while she watches. The two main characters don't actually talk about their feelings the entire book, or "make contact", but I'm hoping that will happen in the next book of the series. There's so much to unpack here! I absolutely loved this book. Imagine a world of seafarers who have lived through war and pandemics by going out and living on boats for long stretches of time. It's very much reminiscent of the movie Water World and the Hunger Games Series, all while being something else entirely unique on it's own. I thought the dichotomy of what technology they have left versus things that people have had to revert back to was fascinating. The world building was just awesome. The jabs at the billionaire who created satellite internet made me laugh. I'll definitely be checking out the next book in the series. View all my reviews
