This was a promising book.
It started off a little confusing, then it cleared up, then it got weighed down in science and theories, and then it ended up taking a turn I’m not sure I like.
I was also waiting for a moment when the six came together, when they finally started liking each other and working together, but it never happened.
The timeline also moved in fits and starts and I wanted something smoother, more planned out.
There’s a lot to like about this book. The snark, the diversity, the theories.
But I also find there’s an equal amount not to like.
