flotranfer 's review for:

Contact by Carl Sagan
4.0
reflective slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Different way of telling the message, the characters feel pretty real and human with all their contradictions and biases. I like the way it’s written even when it gets technical it’s not boring.
The baby comment feels out of character and like it is simply there ‘cause she is a woman so I found it annoying, plus she would have been a terrible mother. I don’t know how i’m supposed to feel about the revelation but in a way makes the story more realistic.
