It is 2:25am as I finish this book. I'm speechless.
This is one of the most profound stories I've read in a while. A sci-fi packed with action, philosophical themes, memorable characters and a plot that wouldn't quit. The author touched on race, classism, war, religion vs science, nature vs nurture all while pulling us through the multiverse.
This story was full of twists and turns at every level. I could not put it down - it read like a complete series almost. I thought the conversation around identity and grief was thought provoking. Cara's flaws, conflicts and development were well written. I was good with the ending, but selfishly wish for something more cliche after everything. Ha! Will be a staple in my library for sure.
