A review by mousmoulo
The Atlas Six by Olivie Blake

mysterious tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? It's complicated
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes

4.25

objectively 3.5⭐, subjectively 5⭐ because i'm clawing the walls thinking about these characters. 4.25⭐ feels about right

i wanted something vaguely similar to tvd/ove by chloe gong and i wanted characters being petty and arguing a lot. i got it and i had an incredible time with it >:)

really the only thing that genuinely bothered me was the way the second-to-last chapter was formatted. it would've been such an interesting revelation from anyone else's pov, but the way it was just laid out for the reader felt quite underwhelming. still a good plot twist though, and i'm very intrigued to see where it leads!

side note on the pairings:
why nico and libby enemies to lovers????? when gideon and nico have literally the most tender friendship i've read in a while?????? when they clearly love each other too much and would AND CONTINUOUSLY DO everything for each other?????? i'm the first to appreciate a well-written friendship but like. come ON. if they don't end up together i will riot. it's nico and libby's friendship that i actually want to see, enemies to friends is simply superior
