one of those books I need to re-read now
I could not stop reading The Ones We're Meant to Find. I mean it. I read 60% in one sitting. And then I finished it the next day. The Ones We're Meant to Find is thrilling and thought provoking. I'd say that the first 2/3 is pure thrill, mystery, and the best kind of confusion. Whereas the last 1/3 still has these revelations and twists, but also this thought provoking SF quality. Keep reading this book review to hear my ranting!
I finished The Ones We're Meant to Find and immediately needed to re-read it. Joan He is an autobuy author for me after her stunning debut and her second book only cements my love for her. It's rare I find the need to dive back into a world, into a story, immediately after finishing but I do. It's like watching those great movies that capture you completely. The Ones We're Meant to Find is five stars for pure thrills and thought provoking quality. And I want to go back to the beginning and unravel it all over again with a fine toothed comb.
He's world building is spectacular. It's a world of mass climate change and environmental destruction. A world where we have to live parts of it in holoworlds for the future of our world. Where we are haunted by the sins and mistakes of our past. A time where robots are common place and the technology we've seen in SF books comes alive. Not only that, but He subtly and slowly brings a thoughtful-ness to this world. We are forced to examine the destruction we have wrought. Furthermore, we must contemplate our own future.
