I really enjoyed this sequel. It just a really fun read. All of the characters are so interesting. Their personalites are so full and fleshed out. The book is not very plot heavy, relying instead on the interactions between the characters. For me, this really worked. I honestly loved all the characters. The only reason this isn't getting the full five stars is because the book wasn't amazingly memorable for me. It was good, but it wasn't that impactful for me personally.

I’m ok with a character-driven book in a series where the plot takes a back seat, but The Atlas Paradox is really missing both. It never finds its purpose, with only the last few pages being interesting. It’s essentially a filler book masquerading as one-third of a trilogy. I really like Olivie Blake’s writing style and she does a good job of putting you in the mindset of her unique characters, but there just wasn’t enough substance to make what those interesting characters were doing worth reading about. A bummer follow-up to The Atlas Six, which I really enjoyed.
