adventurous medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix

3.5 stars. I enjoyed the main conceit about death and how it is handled by “reprinting” from a person’s saved-off neural network. The main story is OK. The romance subplot is cringy, almost Fourth Wing in its juvenile feel. 

I don’t need to read further into the series but it was a decent audiobook.

An engaging story novel wrapped as a memoir and coming of age story. Engaging atmosphere with well crafted characters. Takes a little while to get going, but had me reading for far longer sessions than normal because I enjoyed it so much. The final chapter, and the Coda chapter, worked very well. I look forward to reading more from this author.
