It was a great read!
Could have been 5 stars but there were periods where I felt it dragged a little, and at times the writing felt very “hand holding” and repetitive when talking about the various characters and their experiences with colonization.

It’s pretty fun if you accept it for what it is. I’m not a fan of smut in books so I just skipped most of it. The plot was fun, and completely unrealistic. I had a lot of fun with it.
