nerdinthelibrary 's review for:

Dreadnought by April Daniels
2.5

content warnings: transphobia, transphobic/homophobic/ableist/sexist slurs, child abuse (emotional), forced outing, purposeful misgendering
representation: transgender lesbian protagonist, latina wlw side character, various side queer characters, various side poc

This book was fine. Its main characters were really good, the plot was intriguing, and it was extremely fast-paced, but its secondary characters were very two-dimensional and the fight/combat scenes were written in a really bland way. 

All in all, this book was okay but not as good as I wanted it to be. I probably won't read the sequel unless my library gets it.
