 📚 It was such a joy to be back with Eva and her crew! I love the universe Valdes has created with these books - wild aliens, a dangerous space underground, and political intrigue, all led by a kickass heroine.
📚 PRIME DECEPTIONS and its previous book, CHILLING EFFECT, are basically nonstop action. If you're looking for space battles and duels with aliens, this is it.
📚 I love how Eva's heritage is woven into the story through her memories and consistent use of Spanish, especially when talking to her family. I don't know of many books set in space with Latinx protagonists, so it's pretty cool to get to read one.
📚 Also, the psychic cats feature much more prominently in this book, which I obviously enjoyed!
