This is wonderful; I know very little about Rosalind Franklin, but this is making me really want to learn more.

So far, the illustrations are fantastic and I'm loving the vibe.

‘Mmmm, chips…’

That last chapter was.... a bit much.. wasn't exactly expecting that.

'Helen would be brought up in Sparta to be the ruin of Asia and Europe and for her sake the Greeks would capture Troy.'

Ok, Crocus is great. Sarah is great and so is John. I love these characters.

so far, so great!

noooo

nghhh

John and Sarah are brilliant, kind of makes me wonder what it'd be like to have siblings and if this is accurate to what a sibling relationship would actually be like.

Zachariah is an interesting character, too. I'd be a heck of a lot more suspicious of two strangers if I were him, being the son of the high priest.

This! This is more like it!

'“Careful, Sarah. We shouldn’t go in there.”
“That’s a great idea,” Sarah said, standing upright and walking toward the mysterious
black shape.'

OK.

It think I'm putting this one down, at least for tonight. But I'm really, really not enjoying this and would really rather be reading (or doing) something else at this moment. I don't like the MC, too flat and the world is meh. It's too slow paced atm, and if it doesn't pick up soon I think I may DNF (which I hate doing).

'I couldn’t tell if she was serious or if she was fucking with me. Like, you didn’t discover some method for instantly brainwashing people and then just use it to sell widgets. You didn’t invent a way to shatter glass walls with your voice unless you intended to, uh, shatter a lot of glass. And how exactly did shattering glass count as advertising in the first place?'

Which is cool, but I'm still not getting it

I... no.... have to get to page 50.

But a damn good quote is this one; “The Once and Future Gleaming King of the Sparkle Realm and All its Glamorous Provinces; Protector of Shine, Blink, and Glow; Guardian of Prism, Crystal and Diamond; and Master Commander of the Glittering Monks of Weaponized Psytrance.”

(quick update, i know, but ummm??? what?? why does this feel like i'm rewatching an episode of sword art online, with the VR and the general feelings of disorientation and experimentation?????)

'But they did not patch the rift.'

So far, so okay? I going to see how much I like this when I get to page 50 or so, it's really not drawing me in like I thought it would.

oooo I love this art style and I love the flower crowns!!!
