A review by mweis
The Mimicking of Known Successes by Malka Older

adventurous challenging mysterious reflective tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? Plot

3.5

This book had me sold with the premise of “what if Holmes and Watson were ex-girlfriends but make it in space with some Western vibes”

It did take a minute to sink into the book, but by the end I was sold and I look forward to seeing where Malka Older takes the series for future installments. The world is really cool as it takes place on Jupiter, and I like the way Older played with climate change and the environmental factors involved with why humans left Earth and how they survive on Jupiter.
