This was my first time reading an alternate history novel and I was not disappointed. While there were differences, some of the issues and real life people mentioned/involved remained accurate. I will definitely be continuing the series!

5/5⭐️ | 2/5🌶 | 1.5/3⚠️ | 16+

Genre: historical dystopian sci-fi 
Diversity: STEMinist, Jewish, B/A, Taiwanese, mental health/anxiety+
Moods: dark, hopeful, 
Pace: medium
Device(s): 
Trope(s): 

Notes: soooo good, best opening 100 pages I’ve EVER read, loved the historical sci-fi aspect - was super approachable, amazing steminist characters, fantastic main relationship, spice wasn’t graphic (great on theme euphemisms) but was fairly frequent, really great learning journey for MC re Race relations = good social commentary.  I think it’s best if you go in cold.
