definitely a book you need to physically have because it’s a whole experience.

OMG. I'm not sure why I was expecting anything less than absolutely spectacular, but this book blew me away. I'm far too emotional about this whole thing! So many tears, so many laughs, I just can't fully wrap my mind around how great this was.

If you like sci-fi PLEASE, PUHLEEEEEEAASE READ THIS. The most unique book I've ever read. The audiobook is FANTASTIC and the physical book is WILD. Listening while following along with the physical book is how I read it the second time and that was definitely my favorite way.

This was a DNF for me at about 20%. This isn’t a unique format. Neuvel’s Sleeping Giants is 1000 times better than this.

I really enjoyed this story especially the unique way it was written. Was is believable that a 17 year old saves the day with zero experience when veterans can't comprehend doing the stuff she does? Ofcourse not but it did make for an entertaining read. An AI falling in love with said teen supergirl and being envious of her bf? Cue me rolling my eyes super hard! I rarely pick up YA books nowadays but this was a quick and fresh read. It gets bonus points because the romance was minimum, the story focused more on moving the plot along. Liked the ending very much.
