The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake

monstrouscosmos's review against another edition

I really enjoyed the world building, and the exploration of each character as individuals as well as their group dynamics. the perspective taking of the chapters was also interesting, and the narrators all added nuance to their performances in ways I appreciated (especially during internal monologues). unfortunately Part 6 definitely got too trigger heavy for me, and I found the expositions started to get both much longer and much less believable. not the book for me, unfortunately!

Brilliant book, loved the idea of meadians, and the setting despite being so small was interesting and a place I'd like to be. Loved the characters, and I'm excited to see more of them in the next two books.
