I liked the characters decently and loved the idea for the plot, but the writing is pretty bad. For example, I understand that June and Day are supposed to be smart, but it gets to a point where it's annoying how  quickly they solve things. There are also some parts where it's super analytical and boring (not a direct quote, just an example of a similar scene: "We were moving at x feet per second. We needed to travel x feet. But the 23 soldiers were moving faster than us, and they'd catch up to us at x feet.")

I loved everything about this book from the pacing to the characters to the plot. The only nitpicks I have are about gaps in world building and that emotional beats aren’t given the space to have lasting impact but I think that’s just the fast paced narrative. I can’t wait to read the next book(s).

Reread for the millionth time. Love this book and so glad I picked it up at an op shop one day in 2015 because now it’s one of my favourites ever🫶🏼
