kind of hard to get through if only because the chapters are from a different characters pov each time. the worldbuilding and plot relationship seemed stilted too, but i get that it’s a tough type of story to write with breathing room. 

i do appreciate the development of stevlands character—“i could scream, howl, smash things—“ that got me bitch! i found myself wanting more, at the end, even though this book took me a looong time to get through.
