If this book was like 50-100 pages shorter, it would’ve been great. I think the plot was a little all over the place and considering the MC has only ever interacted with her mother, her social skills should not be as good as they are. I liked the idea of the stars and the astronomer and architect.

I read this book because I started to doubt if I was correct about the December Owlcrate book... I was not, however, I kept reading the book. I seldom DNF. There were times I really enjoyed the story, others, where it was a bit of a trudge. It was 400 pages. A few weeks later, I am still wondering if it should have been edited down 15-70 pages. 3 constellations that were a booger to find.
Vega’s voice is perfect for this tale! I enjoyed following her story and discovering her world along with her. The integration of the constellations and the way the stars are valued really make this story unique. The mystery of the consumption and the mystery around the journey Vega is expected to take based on what her mother taught her growing up really keep you hooked on reading this story, because you know Vega isn’t telling you everything. I really think this is a book to add to your tbr!

This was a slow read, but I was along for the ride until the big reveal/explanation. Honestly, that killed it for me. Finished the book but wasn't very into it.
No ha sido un libro para mi. La trama me ha parecido muy repetitiva, el personaje principal me da la sensación de que no ha evolucionado nada a lo largo del libro.
En general no es terrible pero no lo he disfrutado...

I read Winterwood by this author last year and really enjoyed it, so I decided to pick up another their books to try. This books was good, but maybe not what I would have usually picked up for myself. It was like a post apocalyptic Wild West space opera. Vega was an interesting character, and I did enjoy the story, but I really didn’t love the ending.
