A Solid 3 stars.
Admittedly it took me awhile to get through, like months, but mostly because I was struggling to read with my eyes lately.
The good news was the book was funny and snarky and it was really easy to pick up after putting it down for days at a time.
I loved the concept, a sapphic ROM com set in space with interdimensional travel and cool magical abilities? Cool!
The romance was..meh I did not feel like it had much substance, and (spoiler) I wish the hologram was somehow controlled by Billie somehow because I personally felt a little weirded out by it all.
The novel was very YA coded until the second to last chapter when it was decidedly adult.
This was an alright read for me.
Thanks to netgalley for the advanced copy.
