A really great story!
I went into this book with no expectations and no clue what it was about. The world building was a bit confusing for me, which is the only reason I didn’t rate this 5 stars.
I loved the characters.And I thought it was so clever how the three characters were the same person, just at different stages in her life.
This is a book that I will absolutely read again. It’s about people that are treated like tools and an arrogant society that is sure it’s the best one the world has ever seen (what’s there to learn from dead civilizations- they died for a reason). At least that’s how it struck me.
