idk, it wasn't a bad read overall, but it felt like a lot happened and nothing happened simultaneously - i never felt that there was any risk or heightened stakes with what the characters were doing. pretty bummed at the video game aspect of this book as well - it didn't feel particularly original or exciting. (also, found out after reading that the author plagiarized one of the games in the story - yikes!!)
there were some beautiful moments of prose, but i generally finished and went, "huh. ok. moving on."
also, the favorable depictions and connections to israel definitely didn't sit well with me. 🇵🇸
