Entertaining, immersive and well-thought out world. Very fun to decipher the laws of nature and society in this sciencefiction world. And oh, it’s actually based on science that could work in theory. Nice addition.
Characters were kind of flat to me at times, and story became predictive. There’s no real major character development for any of the characters.
(Spoiler alert, read with caution).
Main girl has to save the world (or universe, really) because it’s about to be destroyed by a monstrous debacle but doesn’t really change throughout the story. I mean, yeah, she might’ve accepted that she might not return to her old lifestyle but is otherwise the exact same person as she was at the beginning, despite having been dead and resurrected…twice.
But it was a nice read overall. 3/5.
