Sophie's Scrambled Review:

"What can you say when there are no words for what you're feeling?"

I immediately loved this book, the setting on a space station and all the ships and space stuff *chefs kiss*
I am usually overwhelmed by multiple POV changes, especially if the internal voice is too similar, but I found this one okay! I confused Tyler and Cat a few times, but other than that, I didn't have trouble keeping up with the changes, which was really nice.

" The only places I fit are the places inside my head...But I believe of all the places I have not fit, I fit here a little better"

I really liked Zila, mainly because I am also a scientist, but her inability to connect with the people around her is something I feel a lot too. Aurora was my next likeable character since she feels lost and out of time (I mean she is).

I see a pattern of liking lost and sad characters? I'm not mad
