This was a fun spooky spaces adventure that takes place on an even creepier planet. The book was well written and felt very atmospheric; I really enjoyed the way the planet was described and how vivid it all felt. The characters were pretty flat, but their interactions with one another felt fairly genuine and engaging.
I did find myself wondering why the M.C (who is a therapist? Psychologist?) did some of the things she did,for example being very naive and hiding information from the team, it felt very disingenuous for how she talks about herself (someone who wants to help)
There were a few instances where I was confused as to why some characters made the decisions that they made, but I think it did add to the ‘everyone is going crazy’ ambiance that the book was trying to present.
Overall, I thought this was pretty good. The story was fun to read, had me wondering what the heck is going on, and felt like I was watching a space horror movie.
