Loved it just as much in the first time - Jay truly is a mastermind and knows how to weave a fantastic intricate story! And once again I adored the Russian revolution influence! Fantastic!

So I wasn’t sure what to expect with this book as it’s so far out of the realm of what I usually read. However, I felt the same way about the Illuminae files and I ended up LOVING it.
This book also starts off a bit slow, and I was struggling to get into it until the chapter of Zeke was introduced - then the story really kicked off!
I loved our main cast of characters particularly the lil robot pup Keiser, I love how they made their own little family.
This book perfect example of Kristoff’s ability to perfectly execute plot twists! Lemon revealing that she’s the deviate, Eve actually being Ana, Ana not actually being Ana but a robot replica. All of these were great plot points that I didn’t expect.
The ending had me so shocked that I can’t wait to read the sequel and see where this story goes!
* Has Eve/Ana joined the dark side now?
* Is human Ana actually still alive?
* Will Zeke end up with human Ana or robo Ana? Or will it turn out that Ana’s father made her a second Zeke to keep her company (or maybe the Zeke we know is a copy just like the Ana we know)
Hands down one of my favourite thing about this book is The Romanov bread crumbs, from the first chapter I noticed the similarities but thought perhaps it was a coincidence but no it was definitely on purpose! It was so incredibly clever and it just made me love this story even more.
Kristoff is truely a magnificent writer and I cannot wait to get my hands on the sequel!
I definitely recommend this book, even if this isn’t a genre you’d usually pick up - give it a go! It’s definitely worth it!
BUT KILLING KEISER? NOT COOL BRO! NEVER KILL THE DOG EVEN IF ITS A ROBOT!!
