A review by ergative
Braking Day by Adam Oyebanji

3.5

 I was surprised by how much I ended up liking this. I found the beginning a bit hard to take, with the tedious crush on the dumb girl who needs help and the incredibly clumsy use of future space!slang. But the plot itself was great! There was a great mystery at the heart of it that developed really well once it got moving, and I found myself fully engaged by the end. This is one of those books that I wouldn't have finished without the motivation of bookgroup, but which I'm glad I finished in the end. But also I won't be reading any more by this author. Because in a world where everyone has cybernetic implants, I simply don't believe that only the engineers have recording functions.
