This love triangle was done really poorly. Other than that though the book was great! Interesting premise, good plot, and lots of action.

This is my first reread of Zodiac, and I can’t believe I forgot how good this book is! 
I love how real Rhoma feels, and she has beautiful character development. I found her realistic and her motivations very fluid and natural.

I also love how Russell takes the characteristics of the Western Zodiac signs and creates complex societies with unique politics and cultures. A beautiful blend of sci-fi and mythology!

Very entertaining and fast-paced. I liked the story and will definitely continue on with the series. Sometimes it was a little too fast paced, and things just kind of conveniently happened. There was also a bit of telling rather than showing. Also, there was no need for one of the love interests for a 16 year old to be 22. But since it’s a debut, I’m hoping to see the writing improve a lot in the next books.
