I feel very violated that the book ended like that.
How dare you.
Uncalled for.

I loved all the POVs...like so much. The race was so exhilarating from all perspectives and I somehow I was rooting for them all. Tiny pieces of it reminded me of the Lunar Chronicles which just gave me so much nostalgia.

So I was going into this assuming it was gonna be a DNF. It just screams "mediocre and like every other book you've read" but I was very pleasantly surprised. Could I have done without the love triangle with brothers? Sure. Did I kinda hate most of the cast? Yeah. But I somehow enjoyed this! Really impressed with this being a debut. I liked the world, it has some structure but left me with a lot of questions. Super interested in the sequel.

DNF at page 50. This hurts my heart. I wanted to love this so much.

Sooooooo I'm a bit confused and surprised. I read this cause there were weird cats on the cover...but I ended up liking it in a non-gag way. The characters were enjoyable. I think the conflict was a little too simple but I can see why that would appeal to some readers when there's already so much to remember about the world. I want more of Eva's crew and more of the weird space cats. Eva's relationship with her sister and father are especially messy in this book and are very clearly going to be the focal point of the next book which I am absolutely going to read.

My big beef with this book is the way so many chapters and scenes were ended. It was like the author wrote 25 different spots and was like "ha! This is where I'm going to end the book" but then she got another idea and added that on...and then did it again and again. It messed with my head quite a bit.

I've got lots of questions and enjoyed a lot of the cast so I will definitely keep reading.

Okay I can't for the life of me put together a good summary of this book. There's just so much going on, In a rare twist, I think my favourite part of this book was the wrap up...where authors notoriously let me down. It's cool, it's complex, it can be dense at some parts but I overall really enjoyed this

OH HELL YEAH! *SPIKES FOOTBALL*

This book was so freaking good! Each page just got better and better. The magic and world and competitions were just so cool.

THE HARRY POTTER VIBES ARE STRONG WITH THIS ONE! I AM SO HERE FOR THE SEQUEL AND HOWEVER MANY BOOKS ARE GOING TO BE IN THIS SERIES! I'M RETURNING MY COPY TO THE LIBRARY AND BUYING MY OWN CAUSE...HELL YEAH!

Once again...
Is this series anything unique? Naw.
Is this series Samm trash? Yes.
Will I read the next one? Yes.

I'm just such a sucker for someone having powers who shouldn't and them being the chosen one and evil people being both dead and not dead.
