I wish I could’ve liked this book more. I really liked the idea of it and the plot itself. I felt like it went relatively quickly and I loved the idea that technology is magic to those who don’t understand. What really made me dislike this book was the worldbuilding. I really thought it was creative, just a little too much in one area.
Andra wakes up on another planet, so it’s feasible that they speak a different dialect of her language or with different slang. However, so many common words were replaced with words that bore little resemblance to the originals that it was hard to keep up. The book was fast-paced, but it took me longer to read because I kept stopping to try and figure out what a word meant. There was also a lot of new technology that Andra knew about but the reader didn’t, which was confusing.
I don’t think I’d recommend this book. If you do want to read it, it’s a sci-fi novel with a fantasy kind of feel. I felt like the characters and plot were great, but the worldbuilding was too confusing to enjoy.
