My guy (alien called Rasputin or some shit idk his name I forgot but it’s basically Rasputin so we sticking with that) legit napped that kid Liz (thee whitest girl name™️ no shade no tea just facts) and brought her to a CAVE yet Liz likes it??? (couldn’t be me I hate nature no shade no tea I’m just allergic to fresh air and grass). Rasputin stuck a BUG IN HER NECK BY FORCE but it was to save her so it was justified. Look I’m sorry but don’t resuscitate me at that point. Forced to live on an ice planet without Diet Coke???? And the only way to survive is to let a bug live in my temple of a body??? Nor couldn’t be me. If I gotta shit in buckets for the rest of my life then leave me be. Let God take care of me at that point. or Satan. I know who I am and I know I got only a 50/50 chance getting into heaven. Anyways, live on a planet with random blue alpha males and no air conditioning??? I’d rather not. And like Liz was pissed about it at first AS SHE SHOULD BE and like called out all the weird shit (including how she shouldn’t be into Rasputin) but then was like defending him… sis you set back feminism by 20 years. But I set it back another 10 years by enjoying this book lol. 

Look I went into this series being like maybe I’ll read the rest and imma say it… IM HOOKED. This shit is fun and light and Liz  being mean and yapping nonstop was so good. It’s almost like a blue bug crawled its way into my cold heart and warmed me up and made me horny. Ok I’m done sorry bye.
