Tarnished Are the Stars by Rosiee Thor

3.0

I wanted to like this book more than I did. Set in a dystopian world where a virus claims the lives of many, a young girl works to spread technical organs that save the lives of people. That girl, Anna spends the book trying to year down the government that treats tech as a crime. Along the way she meets Nathaniel and Eliza who both are part of the government and betrothed. They all make a coup.

Pros:
Nathaniel is aromantic
Eliza and Anna are lesbians
The world is well fleshed out

Cons:
The plot comes off as cheesy at times.

The heavy hitting death scenes and confessions didn't feel legit or intense. Everything seemed a bit too cheery for a book full of intense stuff.
