I'm not sure what counts as "info dumping" in comics, but there is a lot of it. In literature terms, it would be when the villain shares their evil plan- except this specific villain didn't manage to share the entire plan. Which is a good thing in this case.
I didn't own the first set of volumes before I read this, but I was sort of filled in on past events so I wasn't completely lost.
Its good to see Shadow and Silver again, they're my favorites. And it's nice to see a new face!

I stopped halfway through, therefore I don't know what happened in the second half.
It became political. It did not focus on the budding relationship like I expected it to.
Also we get reminders that Sean's eyes are blue (if that's how you spell his name) (I listened to the audiobook). And the cliche "the world stopped" for a peck on the cheek lost me.
The fairy tale opening, Zach / Zack wanting a Knight to rescue him from the castle, was completely forgotten about.
⭐ If I could rate this with a DNF, it would be a 3 star. It is cute, it's light hearted and a comedy, but the protagonist being a union lawyer while his dad is a Republican candidate for something lost my attention.
Sean is quirky with his dress-up, it's not something I usually see in stories, so it was nice seeing a new type of character like him ❤️ definitely reminds me of someone I know irl!

One thing I do want to point out. Kane's amnesia was portrayed accurately, as someone who has dissociative amnesia. You can remember faces and who you are and where you are, but you might forget names for a moment, or how you got there.
This might sound kinda dumb but I couldn't find any trigger warnings and I didn't want to take the risk of reading anything triggering about the cat they had on board. I stopped a little after chapter 10 when the crew made electric nets and planned on sending the small alien creature out of the space craft when they'd find it. I'm not going to stick around to see if my prediction is correct; that they'll mistake the cat and alien.
I identify my triggers by checking in with myself. Am I feeling suspenseful because of the book? Or am I feeling panicky because something is triggering me? I recognized it as panicky and made the choice to close the book. I do recommend this book, especially as someone who rarely reads Sci-fi.

I don't understand the poetry structure, and that's okay; it's unique to the author's style.
This book begins strong and emotional. It brings the reader through the author's journey of pain, love, heartbreak, and healing. Her words are inspirational to those who are dealing with trauma and broken hearts.
Your body is your home; others are guests. This part mentioned in the book stood out to me. I realized how true it is. No one should enter a home and criticize your decoration, natural or not. It's your comfort that matters; it's what makes you genuinely happy about yourself.

The beginning held my attention very strongly due to the expectation I had after reading Interview With The Vampire, but I started losing interest over time. I struggled to get through the 70% mark, but immediately gained interest at around 95%. I will be reading the next book, Queen of The Damned.
This book includes a "story within a story" at some points- something to keep in mind if you are interested in that type of narration.
I question the validity of Ancient Egyptian mythology in this book. From my education, Osiris was slain by his brother Seth. And the people of Ancient Egypt were not "sun burnt" nor tan; they were Black.
The narration is mainly my source of inspiration when it comes to writing. It's more of the words and speaking than the story telling. It's what helps with my writing style for my own novels.
