I have a three strike policy with books: writing style, characters, plot. I could tell right away that I didn’t care for the writing style (strike one), and Ren was the only character I cared about (strike two, given how many characters this book is stuffed with). But the plot hooked me, so I kept reading. I would describe this choice as a mistake. The payoff was incredibly not worth it.

Honestly, I have no idea what to say about this book. It's so different! That's not a bad thing, it just makes it difficult to find words to talk about it. There's so much going on! There's no easy way to even describe the premise to someone? I think I should have read this instead of listening to it. It's beautifully read by the author, but it's so long and complicated that there were multiple times I wished I was reading a physical copy. But also, it really lingered in my mind. I found myself thinking about it multiple times throughout the day- just wondering about what would happen or what the characters would choose. The characters felt extremely real but also unlike anyone I happen to know.
