CW: violence, death, alcohol and drug use, chronic illness, death of a parent, genocide & colonisation

I had a ton of fun with this one, and having a nonbinary character as well as tons of other queer & women characters being the main group was also just nice to experience. we love a  more diverse cast! they all had great personalities and banter like an actual crew/found family.

Rosie & Kurosawa were my fave. just gonna drop one of my fave parts of the book, here:


"you know my sexual inclinations," Rosie said. "so, unless you've grown a cock since the last time I saw you, I'd recommend not trying to fuck me. it'll get you nowhere." -pg 89

my only real complaint is that the end was a bit anticlimactic, like I just wish there was a little more. it was still a good ending, though! overall, I loved this and I'm glad I read it!

mayr3adsab00k's review against another edition

The plot, characters, and setting were both confusing and boring. That was the most boring hit job I've ever seen/read.
