Annihilation by Jeff VanderMeer
5.0
adventurous challenging dark informative mysterious reflective tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Yes

BANGER!!!! read this in basically one sitting and ate up every single sentence. i think my face was constantly stuck in a kind of “what the fuck” expression. you get just enough answers at every turn to keep you interested, but never the full solution. the biologist is one of my favorite characters ever. so detached in a way that made her the perfect person to tell this story, but attached enough to keep her grounded and sympathetic. she just has an innate need to know what’s happening around her. it was perfect and i will be devouring the next one immediately.
