I’m so conflicted with how to rate this book. There were parts of this book that I absolutely loved and were wonderfully well written and beautiful…and then there were parts that i hated so much and I don’t understand why the author thought to write them the way he did. I think I understand what the author was trying to accomplish but there are better ways to show absolute human suffering without constantly defaulting to SA.
Also there was really no reason for the n word to be in here multiple times. Yes the bad guys where purposely being derogatory but they were in a weird futurist sci-fi world…there’s other ways that could have been written.
I love the premise of this book and I love the love story and the characters are creative and quirky (honestly except for the main character, he’s just kinda a generic dude) but he didn’t have so much audacity that it bothered me.
So I guess this gets three stars, right in the middle because my love/hate with this one is 50/50.
