There were issues with the book. The prose was the definition of telling instead of showing. Like it hit you over the head repeatedly with everything, especially the fact one of the protagonists has trauma and therefore doesn't trust anyone. We are reminded of this every single chapter. I think there was also a lot of untapped potential w/ the automa. They're basically just humans but with less emotions and purple blood. They can also starve and die just like everyone else. I just think we could've had more interesting traits for the automa.
Regardless I enjoyed reading it and will probably read the sequel when I find the time. Win for gay people happy pride to my fellow sapphics

The book was fast paced and I think that hurt in some areas. I would have loved a bit more angst between the two female main characters and more time to build their relationship. The story is fun and I’m looking forward to the 2nd book.

I made a mistake reading this not having the second book on hand it seems 😭
It was enjoyable and gripping, though I was more invested with Crier's perspective more than Ayla's (I want to knock Ayla in the head actually...haha). The worldbuilding is okay and the prose is easy to read as well. It's definitely much more character driven than plot but the overarching conflict is still solid. It's nothing life changing or mind blowing or epic but it was entertaining and immersive enough that I enjoyed it nonetheless. What kept my attention is definitely the relationships and especially Crier herself because there's just something charming about Crier's curious perspective.
So if you're looking for an easy read with a dash of one-sided enemies to lovers sapphic in a world where sentient artificial beings exists and have enslaved humans, give this a try!
On a totally different note, I just want to give Crier a hug and also kick Ayla for reasons.
