  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? No
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

I checked this out from the library based on the cover and the short blurb on the back. Let me just say that the short blurb on the back did not adequately portray what this story was about. I was expecting alien apocalypse/sci-fi, but what I got was human and alien sexy time and romance under the guise of alien apocalypse. It felt a little like reading an alien version of Twilight/True Blood fanfic. 

The storytelling wasn’t bad, but I definitely would not have checked this book out from the library had I known what it was actually about. Not really my style!
