one star for casual and abundant lgbtq+ rep, one star for a strong female lead and the way the classic Arthurian legend was tied in with the sci-fi setting, and half a star for a solid action-filled climax.
what i disliked was...
- the way this book seemed written for a younger audience at some points but inappropriate at others? maybe that's not the best way to explain it but i just couldn’t find a proper tone to this book
- the lack of character and relationship development
- the flow of the plot and the constant overdramatization, which was disappointing because there was potential for real drama but instead there were pointless arguments
...and then a bunch of stuff that treads into spoiler territory, so i’ll just leave it at that and not spare any more time for this book, which had so much potential but ended up leaving me disappointed.
