Thinking about
how interpretation of empathy with oppressors changes between people abused with their family and people abused by their family
how first person narration limits thematic interpretation
and limits minor characters
and affects the application of twists
a marketplace where people pretend to shop
the way I bounce off this is the love interest coding

booksthatburn's review against another edition
I couldn't get into this one, the start is really dramatic then slows down a lot and I don't care enough about what's set up to try and push through and see if things pick up later. No major problems with the book itself so far, I'm just not enjoying the experience of reading it so I'm stopping now.

I really enjoyed this book.
Nami is a fun, compassionate, and contemplative protagonist whose perspective I enjoyed. The overall plot is interesting and the world is super fun. I really enjoyed all of the characters, particularly Nami, Gil, and Prince Caelan.
What really made me love this book was the ending. I'm generally pretty good at guessing the end but this one surprised me which was so fun. I'm excited to see where the series goes in the future.

I received a copy of The Infinity Courts in exchange for an honest review.
The Infinity Courts is about a young girl, Nami, who finds that the afterlife is much different than what humans had been led to believe. Ruled now by the artificial intelligence program that helps human during their lifetimes, it is now a place of nightmares, ruled over by the Queen and the four princes of their respective courts. She is soon rescued by other humans who are still aware and they will try to convince her to join her cause despite her reluctance to be the Hero they want. In this sci-fi story, readers will also be conflicted by her decisions and the world in which she now lives in. Would she be willing to eliminate all these Resident (AI) lives or will the human cause be worth taking?
I don’t really read a lot of science fiction but I was particularly drawn to the cover and synopsis of The Infinity Courts. I thought that the premise of it was quite different as it takes place in the afterlife. Nami has reluctanct hero syndrome and there are many questions of morality that she faces. Is it still a life when it comes to artificial intelligence? Nami seems quite reluctant to eliminate her enemies despite seeing how the humans have now been treated by them and all the evidence that proves that human elimination is the goal of the Residents that currently reside in this world. It takes something really drastic for her to finally make a decision. For me, that was the most frustrating part of reading her story - her indecisiveness despite all evidence and information she was learning from the world. But in terms of the world building, I thought it was a very intriguing concept of the afterlife and I look forward to seeing how the world continues to develop as we move out of the Court of Victory and into other areas of the world. I think there is also a lot of potential for character development in Nami and I’m eager to continue this series.
Thank you to Simon and Schuster Canada for the egalley.
