This is actually so cute! All three of my kids are doing a school-wide read of this book - one chapter per day. They’re all loving it.

This is one book that you will definitely have a better experience with the audiobook. I don’t think I would have enjoyed the physical book much but being able to hear Rocky’s sounds makes this really immersive! Still struggling with science jargon overkill but the story is great.

Just me over here vibing with everything he’s saying like I know what it all means even though I dropped out of high school physics and chemistry and barely made it through biology 🧪👩‍🔬🤣

I get the hype… I really do. I think each book gets better and better.

No one prepared me for this emotional damage!! What a book. I still have no idea where the hell they are half the time but it’s a vibe 🤣🤘🏻

Wow, if this isn’t scary accurate to today:

“The Golds claim to the Obsidians that they are gods. They are not. Gods create. If the Golds are anything, they are vampire kings. Parasites drinking from our jugular. I want a Society free of this fascist pyramid.”

“My boys, don’t believe what they tell you in school. Government is never the solution, but it is almost always the problem.”

I waited three books for some spice and when we get to it, it’s so cringe 🫣😫🤣 ahhhhh

“Power doesn’t just come from magic - it comes from your own grit.” Finally she’s growing a backbone 🙌🏻

At times I feel like I’m not smart enough to read this book lol I’m unable to visualize the scenes in my mind because of all the spacecraft words I don’t know.

I’m honestly bored to tears with this 😫

Oh, this is a feminine rage/revenge book! Debbie is diabolical. I love it 🤣🫣

This is unique from her other books because nothing terrible has happened yet that needs solved but all the characters are pretty unhinged. I’m dying to know what’s about to go down 🥀

Where did the beautiful golden hour, nostalgic summer vibes go 😫 what in the personality transplant is going on here.

It’s an interesting story but I’m struggling with the multiple POV changes every single chapter 😅

This has been on my TBR for ages because of the beautiful book cover but I never actually knew what it was about. I’m surprised it’s about pirates 🏴‍☠️🤣 It’s great so far though. I feel a new genre addiction coming on lol

My pick for black-history month - released today! I love WWII historical fiction and this is a small pocket of that history I know nothing about.

What kind of dialogue is “This outfit is dick-down gold.” 🫣And who says “I felt like I was flying” after being kissed 🤣 Ahhh what have I gotten myself into here.

This book has such a vivid setting and is so smart and creepy. Can’t put it down!

How timely to read a book about what happens when government power goes unchecked and innocent people become expendable in the name of control.

Refreshing to read a book written by a man. Feeling a lot of masculine rage rn😆
