If Marci is called “small and angry” one more time I’m going to BECOME small and angry.

Full thoughts to come once I catch up on my review backlog. Again. 🤦🏼‍♀️😅

This is a novel full of heart. Angela has crafted a great cast of characters and an intriguing set-up for a trilogy. I'm very glad I have the next two books on hand. I'm looking forward to binging this series.

Mild language, then the mmc being an absolute idiot in my mind I kept thinking “no guy ever talks like this”. Their squabble when they first met was awkward and weirdly put I want to say the word hot was used at least 4 times in their first conversation. I was ready for anything else to DNF and did with the description of brains being splattered. Anyone of these on their own I probably would have kept on. But all of those in the first 10min I was done.

It was sad though. My first impression was that maybe I’d actually find a space opera I could finish. I LOVE sci fi. But I’ve yet to find a sci fi book like the shows I enjoy that I can enjoy.

The story wasn't bad, though not really my personal cup of tea. The writing itself felt like it needed another round of editing at least.
