need to fully absorb this book before settling on a rating. this reminded me of Arrival because of how slow-paced and reflective it was (even though it's completely different plot-wise). also need to read other reviews because I don't think I fully got the ending lol

It's a story that keeps you engaged. I'm only sorry that there isn't more variation in scenary and action - the characters are in just a 3 places for most of the entire 500 pages. But it's interesting enough to keep going!
