A few questions to get us started:

1. What did you think of the world?
2. What did you think of the characters?
3. What did you like about the mystery setup/solving?
4. Overall thoughts?

Bonus Question:
Write a recipe for this book! (Or @ least compile a list of its ingredients.)

1. interesting
2. at first I disliked the main character Mallory
3. weird but interesting
4. thinking about book 2 in the series

The world felt fresh and quirky, with just enough weirdness to keep me curious without getting lost.

The characters are messy in a good way; not all instantly likable, but they grow on you and feel human.

I liked how the mystery is layered—clues drop slowly, and you’re never quite sure who or what to trust.

Overall, a fun, offbeat read: a bit strange, sometimes uneven, but memorable enough that I’d keep going with the series.

I liked how the book balances tone. It’s quirky and strange on the surface, but there’s a quiet melancholy underneath Mallory’s perspective that gives the story more weight than I expected.

The worldbuilding felt intentionally disorienting at times, which I think mirrors how Mallory experiences the universe around her. That worked really well for me.

The mystery itself almost felt secondary to the atmosphere and character study, which is unusual for this type of story, but in a good way.

I actually really enjoyed reading this book.

The story plot kept me awake at night.

The aliens' characters were descriptive enough. I like how the author viewed them. I've never seen/read the imagination of aliens elsewhere.

There was one case, though, when Mallory and Zan went to a restaurant, the initial description mentioned that there were no chairs. And suddenly, during their dialogue, Mallory sat down on a chair". The only weird part.

I gave a 5-star rating to the book

I noticed that too!
It felt like one of those tiny continuity slips that almost make the world feel more “lived in” rather than perfectly constructed.

In a strange way, it didn’t pull me out of the story, because the atmosphere and the characters were doing so much heavy lifting by that point.
