So.... I guess Card didn't reread Ender's Game before writing the direct sequel.

CHINAMAN?!?! You're not a good enough historical fiction writer to get away with talking like a historical character babe

Hello this came out in 2023 why TF are we calling brown people savages

If I didn't have a rule about finishing books in order to review them and this wasn't from the library I would set it on fire.

Mermaid leggings. In 2024. 🫩

Yayyy I super love insufferable protagonists. My FAAAAAVE.

"I ORDER AN IPA AND ENJOY THE LITTLE NOD OF APPRECIATION I RECEIVE FROM THE BARTENDER"?!?!?! get out.

Wow this is really shit

Nah I think it's ruined actually. Dammit Pearce.

Uhhhh did I just accidentally find a new favorite author??? Don't let me down, Pearce....

PASSIVE PROTAGONISTS ARE FUCKING BORING.

Passive main characters make for pretty shit books 🙄

I don't care what the context is. Men who write graphic rape scenes are disgusting monsters.

This better be gay. It won't redeem it but I might actually be able to finish.

God Jade just goes ON and ON and ON and ON.... The horror movie exposition is worse than unnecessary. I'm BORED.

Jade is Ebony Dementia Raven Way with only slightly better grammar. Just as many run-ons though.

The dialogue is ATROCIOUS.

Great news guys I already hate this.

This girl had better be India Indian bc who tf still called Native Americans Indians in TWENTY TWENTY ONE

I know where this is going and I'm not happy about it.

Get a new shtick Duncan

I don't think Duncan understands how pregnancy works. And by "I don't think" I mean Duncan has no idea how pregnancy works. I'm not convinced he understands the female anatomy at all.

Yo bidness? YO. BIDNESS. ????? jfc

Thank God these books are only ever novellas.

Why is there always an unnecessarily detailed description of vomit for no reason (like, literally no reason for the puke to happen)?? Vomit isn't extreme horror. It's just gross and distracting. I've officially decided I just hate this genre bc all its authors are 17 yo edgelords.

So many comma splices!!!

Yikes wtf

I'm really gonna mf hate this.

This is aggressively mid.

Regurgitated stereotypes aren't actually characterization. Just lazy writing.

Men will never overcome the Madonna-Whore Complex.
