Well this turned out nothing like I thought it would, and I'm ok with that. Very different from most things I have read, including my pandemic reading. I enjoyed it, despite the section headers not being in the correct order for the stages of mitosis.

Spännande och nyskapande. Fastnade direkt, framförallt för handlingen (extra kul för biologer?) men också karaktärerna, alla lite jobbiga och trötta och härliga. Tyvärr spårade den lite i slutet, blev för knäpp utan att kunna ge tillfredsställande svar, och samtidigt lite långsam och seg.

Toinen lukukerta, aiempi 80-luvun lopusta. Jostain syystä kirja tuntui erilaiselta luin aiemmin. Edelleen hyvä dystopia siitä, miten käy kun kehitellään älykkäitä mikro-organismeja.

Took about 100 pages to really hook me. Post ~100, there are some really phenomenal moments and prose…and some not so great characters that you’re stuck with for the remaining 150 pages.

Ew.

Ew.

Also, weirdly anticipates "The Protomolecule" of The Expanse series.
