The writing in this book feels like a rough draft. The authors don't know how to handle serious situations, and the banter and humor were poorly timely and off-putting.

"the universe owes you nothing, kady. it has already given you everything, after all. [...] the only way it will remember you is if you do something worthy of remembrance."


god knows i love a morally grey AI with a fucked up code of ethics and a thing for the most badass human girl in outer space

"gaslight gatekeep girlboss" AIDAN
just plain girlboss kady
ezra honey i love u but your girlfriend is so so much cooler

(please heed the content warnings on this one, folks. whole lotta violence and death and shooting and whatnot. there's no tag for "illness", but the main part of the story involves people being infected with a virus that makes them go insane, so i tagged it with "terminal illness" to be safe.)
