I randomly saw the release for this retweeted by another author I follow, read the synopsis, shrugged and said "why not"? I'm so glad I did! So many awesome characters to love, a great universe to explore, and representation that's done very well while not overtaking a character's personal story or the plot!

I really enjoyed this universe as it felt both familiar and unique in its own ways. It might seem a little overwhelming at first with so many characters to follow, but it honestly didn't take very long at all to become invested in each of them. Loved following the growth of each character at their differing stages and how they all clashed and melded over time. They all felt very organic and their reactions were genuine in every scenario which made it easy to keep reading.

(And if you're like me, check out the audiobook because the narrator does a FANTASTIC job).
