joonswifey 's review for:
Obsidio
by Jay Kristoff, Amie Kaufman
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'M CEASING TO EXIST LITERALLY NOW. This book killed me. This is a ghost writing this review. Like wow. I loved it. I LOVED IT. What a fantastic conclusion. I remain fully on board with Kady and Ezra and they are my faves of this squad, at least in terms of a ship. Nik and Hanna I still think would've been better as bros for life but I'll accept their love. As for Rhys and Asha, we may not have gotten to know them too well but if you give me a guy named Rhys and then give him a QUIFF... sorry not sorry, my heart is yours buddy. The MVPs of this remain Ella and AIDEN, who deserve all the love in the world and more. Do you think we could find AIDEN a nice little AI to fall in love with too? No? Ok. Well.
Anyway my only (minor) (very minor) gripe is that they made 195209342 of these side characters gay/people of color but we didnt really get any main leads with that diversity. Was Asha some kind of brown? I wasn't 100% sure. But anyway, even then, then most of them die. Lmao. But that's something poc get used to lmao. 500 years and it seems discrimination is fiiiinally done but we still don't got any poc main leads. Hm.
OK ANY WAY. This book really had me in my damn feels. Between #dadgoals Isaac Grant (lmao him and his LANGUAGE! warnings fucking KILLED me) and that fucking CAT (if you don't remember the cat you have forgotten the true survivor of this series) and also Asha's relationship with KATYA!!!, and that motherfucking PARACHUTE!! I was really attacked by this book and there are plenty of witnesses who saw me lowkey crying in a starbucks because of how attacked I was.
Anyway there's a lot I loved about this but most of all I loved how much it emphasized that the most ordinary of people, given the right circumstances, can become extraordinary. That everyone has the potential to be a hero. That's a really beautiful message.
