Plot or Character Driven:
A mix
It was a fun little sci-fi romp, but there were definitely areas it could have been fleshed out more. I liked the premise overall- an expendable colonist on a new planetary home who has an accidental clone pop up. The MC's personality and dialogue very much reminded me of the MCs of Andy Weir's "The Martin" and "Project Hail Mary".
The science aspect of this sci-fi though was not really the main focus and only lightly touched upon or mentioned.
The ending was a bit lackluster for me. Very anticlimactic. I think had various areas of the novel been built on more, like the colonists interactions with the native life forms or Mickey's relationships with various other crewmates, the story would have felt more whole
