Noumenon by Marina J. Lostetter
4.5

Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes

90% of this book is a solid 5 stars for me - each chapter is a new POV, as part of a multigenerational space travel epic to an unknown star. The writer does an incredible job of making me interested and invested in each new character, and they have complex motivations. But the last two chapters lose steam and aren't as riveting as the rest of the book, making the ending fall flat. Still, I loved this book and will read the sequel.
