Amazing! Fantastic! Fast-paced, character driven, murder mystery in space. SO much fun. But specifically fun I enjoy. It has clones, witty banter, characters with secrets in their past, surprisingly deep ethical discussions. It is a little chaotic and the mystery quickly fades into the background while the characters and their stories become the focus of the book. I wish we had more interactions between the characters themselves, but for me, it was enough to care for them by the end. Even though they do a lot of questionable things. XD It's probably the most problematic and violent found family I've encountered, but what can I do, I still adore this trope.
