What did I just read?
The first half (if not more) of the book felt like white noise. I wasn’t really interested in Juliette and Warner and their relationship drama, which was made especially ridiculous by the fact that they’d only been dating around a month. Also, the “issues” Juliette is facing are kind of silly and mostly stem from her being an idiot thinking that the role of Supreme Commander would be easy. I had so much secondhand embarrassment from reading about her trying to be good at politics.
The other half of the book was just confusing. Everything happened too quickly and things came out of nowhere, making me feel like I was either missing something or losing my mind.
I’m not going to add any spoilers because I don’t even really know what was revealed.
