Reviews with content warning for Sexual assault - Luka

Loved! I think I like this one more than the first! I really loved how we got to see the characters develop in this one and the plot itself was taken up a notch. It is dark in the beginning though.

4.0

So I loved the premise of this, and would have loved it if the bulk of the story had been about it. But the premise was only the beginning, and while I did enjoy it, it wasn't quite a five star read for me.

Characters: 8/10
While Alice was her own unique character, I found Luka to be less distinct. I loved that he had a different occupation and interests, but his actual personality wasn't especially distinctive. I still liked them both, though.

Atmosphere: 9/10
I really enjoyed the extra worldbuilding here! Seeing different housing, the forest, and different alien animals was great.

Writing: 8/10
The writing was still really solid.

Plot: 7/10
Disappointed that the premise - two people put together, don't speak the same language and have to become mates! - was only the start of the relationship. But it still had a good plot.

Intrigue: 6/10
Once they were together the stakes weren't really there. Yes there were other humans to rescue but this didn't have any emotional pull.

Logic: 8/10
Nothing majorly unlogical.

Entertainment: 8/10
I still had a good time reading this and will continue with the series.

Total rating: 7.71/10
