So far this series is really good! I think this first book is a lot of world building and character introductions. The middle of the book seems like the beginning. I am very glad there are more books to expand on Juliette and Warner. I so far don't trust Adam and love Kenji and Juliette. I think the world building works very well it just means the into is super slow.

This book was my way out of reading slump! I love every inch of this book and I can’t understand how I was able to stay away from it for so long. The characters are perfect. I've never felt this way about a book in a long time✨
Also
Hoping for more Juliette+Warner in the second book 🫶🏻
