I tried so hard to get through this book; but the thought of picking it back up just exhausted me.
The pace is very fast, the violence seems likes it's solely for violence sake. I have little to no attachment to any of the characters and the world-building has been almost non-existent. I can tell it's a sci-fi? I think...
I found this book on a list of LGBT sci Fi recommendations .. I don't think I'll be trusting that book riot list again. This book reads like a YA novel, which I have been known to enjoy, but I guess I'm not in the mood for right now?
I see there are a lot of people who have enjoyed this novel, so read some of their reviews and see if it is for you before you knock it. Happy Reading everyone!
