I enjoyed this reread. Aliens are a nice change of pace for a romantasy. Katy is alright, she is relatively bland honestly, but is kind and grows tougher as the book goes on, which I like to see. I'm jealous of her book blogging life. Daemon is a pretty good bully MMC, super hot and mildly morally grey and has his fair share of heroics. The ending is a little bit mysterious, bc how it happens isn't really explained until the next book. And I don't love how she left things btwn Katy & Daemon. I understand why, bc it will allow the will-they-won't-they tension to continue for at least another book, but the conversation they have at the end involves an insanely quick change of opinion that I don't find very believable or well explained. But it's a fun, quick read and I would recommend!

I thoroughly enjoyed this book. I don’t read a lot of alien books but this one was very surprising in the best way possible.
The major issue that I had with this book was probably the pacing. I felt like it took a while to get started. And I was a little bored during the first 100 pages but once the story started to kick off, things started happening and it was wonderful, beautifully executed.
Also, I’m sort of obsessed with Daemon and Dee. I’m also very curious as to what happened to their brother. There has to be more to the story. I will just have to read the sequel then.
