I liked this as much as the first book, possibly more. Def better than the second book. 
Great banter cause Aehako is just so funny!
I loved that we got more w-o-r-l-d-b-u-i-l-d-i-n-g !!! and intrigue for the history of the planet. 

The one downside was there was great conversation around infertility and I found that refreshing... only for at the end it seems like she got pregnant anyway cause 'mates' 'love' whatever
