Second, I liked the book but I feel like it was most definitely not what it was advertised as, but first let’s talk about all the things I liked! First, I loved the way the author wove information into the story and made so natural to the plot and flow of the book. I also loved the main character and her struggles not only with the morals she was created with but the new morals she found herself discovering. That also brings me to the second part of what I liked about the book, the questions it made you ask about humanity, life, and personal morals were so cool and interesting to me, again, I loved the way the author also kinda wove history into the book with these questions as well.
Now let’s get into what I didn’t like about the book, first I expected a lot more of her traveling by herself and discovering things on her own which is not to say she didn’t but it was more her being shown things instead of finding them out for herself. I also didn’t like the way the book kinda hinged on the male character, being there to make her feel things when she was doing that just fine on her own. There were also certain parts in the book that just felt unnecessary and kinda took away from the story.
Another thing I want to mention about this book is that it’s great for Jewish representation and while it is a fictional story it doesn’t have real historical facts woven into it!
Overall I’d give this book a nice 6/10!
