Thank you Angry Robot for the early copy! Here is my honest review!
This book was super weird and I loved every moment. Having read the description it still didn't go the way I expected. I was consistently surprised by the book and I flew through it in two days because I just wanted to know what happened next.
What really makes this book so special is the characters. They just feel so real. So much thought was put into each one even if they barely had any screen time. The characters were diverse in a myriad of ways and that really helped the realistic feeling.
The sci-fi elements of this futuristic world were blended in so seamlessly, like of course the main character records everything with their contact lenses. It felt like it could take place in the near future honestly.
Somehow, despite this book being fairly action packed it still maintained a cozy feel, largely because so much of it focused on the interactions of Denver as xe builds relationships with the other characters.
