Recursion is not the style of book I typically go for, but I’ve been trying to branch out. I really enjoyed the plot and character development! It was a little sad at times, but overall an addicting read. I did start to get a little bored towards the end because it began to feel repetitive, but it’s 100% worth finishing!

Pros: engaging and creative.

Cons: the dialogue and emotional descriptions are just terrible.
