I really enjoyed Kaisa’s Weather Underwater. Her writing made me feel a lot of different ways, mostly desperate about our collective future but also inspired to take more political action at my own level and comforted in my choice of not being passive on the current issues faced by our society. I’m so so afraid of this kind of story becoming reality at a large scale. The characters delivered extremely emotional scenes, and the one that really kicked me in the gut was the whole passage with Lily and her team spreading death at that poor lady’s house.

When your heart is closed, giving in to quiet resignation is tempting, and surrendering to anger never feels like an easy way out.
