Status Updates From Drastic Measures

I knew they'd eventually show "Kirk as kid present during this awful event" but man oh man did I not need "Kirk is smarter/better/faster/cleverer than everyone else and that's how they find out what Kodos looks like!" as a plot point.

Georgiou and Lorca are present. Let them shine.

I'm really enjoying the time with Philippa Georgiou.

That said, I'm not a huge fan of fridging as motivation; did Lorca need a girlfriend to die to care? I... don't think it was needed.

Listening to the audiobook. Hadn't expected the massacre to be front-loaded into the story—I figured we'd creep up on it a bit more—but quite liking the pacing even though it's a surprise.

So, I started reading this book this evening. And whole time, I'm thinking "Which one is this - Prime or Mirror Universe?"
