Central Station by Lavie Tidhar
3.0

Central station is a very creative book. It is unlike anything else I have read and definitely builds a unique alternative future.

For me, I struggled with characters that felt a little flat (like being told they were troubled instead of seeing their trouble) and a few side narratives that felt like they started nowhere and ended in the same place.

It is still worth reading for the themes explored (AI and mortality for example), but it could have focused more building up the "why" of both the characters and the setting.
