I read this book while fairly exhausted from reading, so I feel it's a great pick for when you're looking for something engaging and not strenuous. While some of the plot points were predictable, I did love the lush descriptions of the kaiju and the world they inhabit. Trying to imagine what Scalzi had was the most enjoyable part of the experience. Aside from that, I did like the relatability and humor and felt the characters, while not entirely memorable, were affable enough for me to feel invested in. I would definitely recommend this book to others searching for a short, energetic read.
