This book was... okay. I loved the two main characters but I didn't enjoy much else about it.
The book centres around an incredibly fun sci-fi concept which I feel like the authors didn't get weird enough with, and at points I found the plot to be a bit meandering and repetetive, which was a lil disappointing to me as I thought the first ~150 pages set things up very nicely.
Ultimately I'm still glad I finished the book as I really really liked the ending, but I think anything else from these authors may be a miss from me unfortunately.
