I received a free early copy of this audiobook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This was a very pleasant surprise! The story follows Bel, a senior in high school, who joins Mateo Luna's robotics club, in order to make up a bad grade and finds herself enjoying it a lot more than she expected to.
As someone who's fresh out of school and just getting started in uni, I could relate so much to the personal struggles and questions relating her future Bel had to deal with and it was a way better representation of secondary school experiences than other books I've read.
I'm not personally a woman in STEM but I love a lot of women in STEM and I really appreciated the depiction of the prejudices women in STEM have to face on a daily basis.
The audiobook narrators were nice to listen to and they were able to get me soo excited and enthusiastic during important scenes.
Overall, I enjoyed this book a lot and would love to read from this author again!
