Trigger warnings: mentions of/attempted rape, physical assault, murder, graphic descriptions of violence, homophobia.
If that sounds like a lot, nearly all of that happens within the first ten pages or so. If you don't have the mental energy to push through that, I totally get it and you should not read this book.
Anytime the main characters meet someone the reader isn't supposed to like, they'll do tr say something homophobic - which I found rather tiring after a while.
I decided to DNF this title, as, after three months since I first downloaded it, I still hadn't finished it and could only read a handful of pages before quitting again.
For me, the story isn't compelling enough to continue. The danger is meh at best. Aliens who want to take over Earth, because reasons. Mhm, I'll stick to Independence Day for that overdone trope.
Overall, 3.5 out of 5. Some good points, but not enough to give it a higher rating.
