Good read! Very interesting. The plot was positively gripping, and the author does a very good job immersing you in the setting. REALLY interesting. Most of the characters were fascinating and likable, too, but I just... really did not care about Nina and Matthias. I absolutely did not care about them, and it felt like there was SO much on them, especially in the middle. Matthias was just not very likeable to me and he didn't get interesting until like the last quarter. That and I feel like Kaz's thing for Inej is a bit predictable. Other than that, though, real good read! I'd definitely reread it to absorb more, I love the intrigue and the shenanigans. It was absolutely amazing going through the 4D chess the crew is operating on here, it was super engaging, especially in the first and last thirds of the book. Definitely gonna read the second one!
