The Country of Ice Cream Star [book, audiobook]

THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BOOK. I *REALLY* LIKED THIS BOOK, BUT I FEEL LIKE I HAVE NOTHING BUT NEGATIVE OPINIONS ABOUT EVERY SINGLE PART OF IT. LIKE, PREMISE WISE IT'S 80 YEARS IN THE FUTURE AND A DISEASE CAUSES EVERYONE ON EARTH TO SICKEN AND DIE IN THEIR LATE TEENS. SO EVERYONE LIVES IN POST APOCALYPTIC COMMUNITIES AND TALK IN CRAZY FUTURE CLOUD ATLUS BABY TALK  (WHICH IS WHY A CHARACTER WOULD BE NAMED "ICE CREAM"). I DON'T KNOW, EVERY PART OF IT RUBBED ME THE WRONG WAY BUT I STILL SOMEHOW REALLY LIKE THIS BOOK. LIKE EVERY TOWN HAD OVERLY HIGH CONCEPT CENTRAL GIMMICKS, BUT THEN EVERYONE THEY MET WOULD ALWAYS INSTANTLY EXPLAIN 'YEAH, OUR WHOLE CULTURE AND RELIGION IS DUMB AS HECK" AND LIKE, THAT IS VERY DOOFY WRITING BUT THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT, THE MORE THAT WOULD BE EXACTLY WHAT A CULTURE RUN BY A BUNCH OF SMALL CHILDREN AND TEENS. SPEAKING OF DOOFY WRITING, THIS BOOK HAD ABSURD AMOUNTS OF SKYRIM DISEASE, THE WHOLE BOOK TAKES PLACE BETWEEN SEPTEMBER AND JANUARY AND THE MAIN CHARACTER SOMEHOW BECOMES THE LEADER OF EVERY FACTION SHE MEETS. SHE BECOMES THE LEADER OF HER TRIBE, THE QUEEN OF THE "ARMY" TRIBE, THE NEAR WIFE OF THE MAYOR OR THE LOCAL CITY, THEN EVENTUALLY GOD ON EARTH OF NEW YORK CITY. AND MARRIED TO JESUS. 

PS. REALLY THOUGH THE WHOLE BOOK IS JUST THE LANGUAGE STUFF, CONCEPTUALLY THE WAY THEY TALK IS SO DUMB, THE BOOK REALLY STRAINS AT FIRST TRYING TO EXPLAIN WHY EVERYONE TALKS LIKE THAT, SINCE IT'S ONLY 80 YEARS IN THE FUTURE AND EVERYONE STILL CAN READ AND DOES READ BOOKS AND IT MAKES SENSE A BUNCH OF TRIBAL FERAL CHILDREN TALK WEIRD BUT AS THEY GO TO BIGGER AND BIGGER COMMUNITIES IT FEELS VERY SILLY, BUT EVENTUALLY THEY MOVE TO HAVE THE LATER PEOPLE THEY MEET HAVE ENGLISH AS A SECOND LANGUAGE SO NO ONE HAS TO EXPLAIN WHY EVERYONE ON A VERY FRAGMENTED EARTH SPEAKS THE SAME SILLY DIALECT. I DON'T KNOW THOUGH, THE BOOK WORKS SO WELL BECAUSE THE LANGUAGE DOES HAVE A GOOD AND CONSISTENT GRAMMAR. LIKE THE STORY IS ALLOWED TO BE DUMB BECAUSE EVERYONE IS PUTTING THEIR ARMS IN THEIR COATY SLEVES AND WITH THEIR TENISH CHILDREN, YA AND ROOING AT PASHA SENGAL.
