Annihilation by Catherynne M. Valente

3.0

I really enjoyed this one! A murder mystery IN SPACE!!! I’ve played the smallest amount of Mass Effect, but not enough to remember any of the alien names or really anything other than the MOST basic of plots. I was expecting those plots to play a role but they rly didn’t. Instead, the game was more background worldbuilding, and playing it is totally unnecessary to understand the book. This is more like a locked room murder mystery (except the room is a kilometer long spaceship and the murder is a mysterious disease killing ppl who should be locked in Cryosleep).

I read this mostly bc I wanted some more talking spaceship
