I almost didn't make it through this. It's very dense and confusing and there's a lot that doesn't totally make sense. The world is quite unique with a interesting blend of natural organic imagery and AI and mechs, and the characters are quite endearing even when they're being idiots. But it was slow going and I found myself pausing after a resection to do something else. But I did make it to the end and I'm glad I did.
