Some of the sci-fi aspects are familiar, but it still felt fresh and original.
The writing was really well done and I loved learning about Petra and her family and how her heritage was such a central part of herself.
I wish the story continued after its end.

This book gave off the vibes of the movie Passengers, the book series Percy Jackson, and strangely, somehow, the city of Chicago. I can’t really explain that last one, just like I can’t really explain the way this book was perfection in a beautiful casing.
Moderate: Death and Grief
Minor: Child death, Death of parent, Abandonment, Alcohol, Colonisation, Animal death, Ableism, Gaslighting, and Kidnapping
