A very entertaining read- a Sci fi mystery book with a very current view of how social media can affect everyone's perception of events.

Perfect sci fi. 

Very interesting, easy to digest. Voice acting done VERY well I found myself in a little panic towards the end that the voice actor from the first novel wouldn’t be joining us in the sequel, but I’m so glad it’s the same person 😭.

An unlikeable main character, a creative twist to
alien invation
. Not a huge fan of
lying as a plot device
, definitely takes me out of it, but all in all this is just about exactly what I like in a book. Thinking I might not like the sequel as much as the first just by starting it like 3% but we’ll see lol.

There is a lot to like about this book, and I'm looking forward to reading book 2. The humor was just ok, and the romance was weird and a little pointless. But the story is fantastic and creative.

The protagonist is understandably and purposefully flawed unlikable but, if you can get past this - the books has a wonderful message about power, fame, hope and humanity.

Content warning: A description of
gore/body horror from fire and building collapse
is mentioned. The FMC lets the reader know when it is about to occur so that the reader can skip. I loved this inclusion of warning. I wasn’t aware this book had this type of content and was thrilled that I was given the choice to skip over it.

Delightfully entertaining with thought-provoking commentary on fame. Didn't expect it to have me on the edge of my seat at the end
