I'm going to need 5-10 business years to just process what I read, I think 🤯😭😬😅🥵😰
Okay, okay, I think I've processed enough now (maybe?). This was a wild, fun time and I loved it!
I loved and felt so strongly for the cast of strong, diverse, queer, female characters who supported each other. They were probably the strongest part of the book. I was hesitant about the number of POVs but I think it really worked to develop all the core crew of characters.
The plot was twisty and intriguing, and every time I thought that something needed to happen to keep this plot moving, something happened immediately after, so the pacing was great in my opinion. I guessed a couple of plot points but not too far ahead and I had so many feelings for the characters that it didn't bother me at all and still had an emotional impact on me.
I thought the world was really cool, and how the storyline reflected similar events in the real world today.
I had a great time with this, thank you Rhys (readswithrhys) for encouraging me to pick up this book! I can't wait to read the sequel 🙏🏼
