A fun speculative semi-historical fiction novel, reads fun and fast. Will be a hit with the queers and I think also with the type of liberal women/other readers who like books like The Power, Future Home of the Living God, or Handmaids Tale. Lots of old Wild West and post-apocalyptic tropes in new clothes. Not the deepest read but a fun one- would have liked a map in the front.

I quite enjoyed the characters I got to know through this book, the settings, and the journey we go on as the characters develop and learn. This is a fun feminist western that brings a new perspective to the genre.

Feminist adventure set in the wild wild west

A thrilling and inspiring story about a woman who knows she's worth more than the fate she is assigned. I loved the immediate focus on science and feminism, especially set in a time where these were not popular topics.
The characters were diverse with fascinating backstories and the author wasn't shy in taking them away from us.
Loved the happy ending, I was positive we weren't going to get one.

Such an interesting book! It wasn’t what I expected, but not necessarily in a bad way. It was rewarding to read about Ada finding her meaning in the world. That being said, it felt like the last third of the book was a little rushed and the ending wasn’t super satisfying. I think it could have been a little longer.

All in all, I liked it!
