The murder of planet Earth must be avenged and Kyr has trained for days to do so. Kyr has been raised in Grea Station that encompasses the last pieces of humanity. She has been preparing herself for a while to face the Wisdom, which just happens to be an all-powerful and a reality-shaping weapon that allowed the Mejoda to win against humanity. Kyr's brother becomes assigned by the The Command to certain death and on top of that, The Command assigns her to the nursery so she can bear sons. The only thing Kyr can do is plan to avenge humanity and will escape into a universe that she does not know and does not understand.

When I first heard about this book, I knew I just needed to read it. I do not read much sci-fi and want to get more into it and I had a feeling this would be one to add to my tbr so I can explore more of this generation.

I really, really wanted to like Some Desperate Glory, but I neither hate it or love it.

Some Desperate Glory has a lot of potential, but I feel like it did not go into full depth into what it really wanted to be and to take some risks to elevate the plot, world, and characters.

I really love this premise about Kyr wanting to avenge humanity and to become a warrior. I felt like the first quarter of the book does engage you and feels fast paced. Then, the queer representation was great as well.

For Kyr, I feel like she was an unlikeable character, but her development was good and made her feel real based off of the circumstances she was going through.

However, as I kept reading, I kept feeling like I was being transported out of the book and not really liking the characters or really caring what was going on.
