i fuckin loved this book
which, reading other reviews i know is a drop in the ocean of mixed feelings.
The biggest complaints made by other readers are that it’s very quip-y. And the chapters are like 3 pages long and end on a cliffhanger most of the time.
Now for me, who has the attention span of a goldfish, and a deep hatred of dry ass Sci-Fi novels, this book is absolutely perfect. And the main character is bi, which i love, and has an fwb relationship with her hunk of an engineer (who is very sweet, respectful, funny and loveable, as all good men should be).
ITS JUST FUCKIN GOOD, I LIKED IT A LOT. The main characters are funny, competent, and just all around cool. There are definitely jump scares in this that read like a tv show, and it’s super fun to read. Books like these remind me why I like YA, they can have more fun!
Graphic: Body horror, Gun violence, Violence, Grief, Death of parent, Alcohol, Colonisation, and Injury/Injury detail
