Ok! I finally finished this book and hmm, it’s unfortunately still not my favourite. Thank you to BookishFirst for a free arc in exchange for an honest review! All opinions are my own.

Positives first though! There was a lot of representation! Asexual representation in fact, which is pretty rare to see.

Time for negatives now. I never got hooked on the story really. I kept waiting for my attention to be drawn in and sometimes I did enjoy the book a little more, but it never quite interested me. In fact, I dragged out reading it over weeks because I just didn’t want to pick it up again. I also had a hard time keeping up with the characters and names of things. Maybe that’s just me, but gosh I got confused quite a few times. I didn’t connect with any of the characters either. I just didn’t connect emotionally with this book, which is very vital to my enjoyment of stories.

I’ve been wanting to pick up a sci-fi for a while, but this wasn’t my cup of tea. Hopefully I can find a sci-fi I enjoy!
