3.0
I picked up this short novella on a whim based on really enjoying Mary Robinette Kowal's Lady Astronaut of Mars series. I liked a lot about it -- immediate immersion in a compelling futuristic world, an interesting protagonist, and a thought-provoking set of themes related to memory, authenticity, and the ability to trust one's own knowledge of one's experiences. Minus one for deliberate typos/misspellings throughout.
