lbjo 's review for:

All the Birds in the Sky by Charlie Jane Anders

3.0

---

i think this book is like a 3.5? or a 3.75? the payoff at the end was really cool (very donna haraway) but a lot of the book was kind of a slog and the characters were not as developed as you would think they would be for a book with a plot that's all about learning and changing your perspective. however the magic system was really fun and reading this felt like watching someone untangle something very complex which was fun! not my fave, not the worst!
