but holy shit. i had such a fun time.
anyone reviewing this like it’s meant to be incredibly serious mind-blowing sci-fi literature is missing the point.
this is just a silly goofy time.
bonus points for endless star wars references. it’s what george would want.

The book includes just enough world building to explain how the characters got into the current situation. I found this a little frustrating because although it makes sense that this is all the characters would know ( and it is dual first person POV), I still found myself wanting to know more about space travel and how the different planets in the galaxy work. Like you never actually learn anything about the aliens that abduct the women, it’s all speculation and not very in-depth speculation at that.
The relationship is very much male takes care of female to reproduce. There is not any exploration into an intellectual connection or a deep emotional connection. I didn’t find that stopped the smut from being compelling, but I also don’t care if they break up or one of them dies.
Although not really explored in the actual text, the story does touch on the difficulties of trying to navigate two completely different cultures with a real communication barrier. If humans were to interact with aliens one day, it is very possible to have conflicting cultural norms. A heinous crime in one could be an expected custom in another, so how does one ethically navigate that interaction? I don’t know but interesting to think about.
