Annabelle

Fun read. Might be lacking substance, maybe can extract some themes of morality. But entertaining enough that I'll be reading the next one.

Recommending this to anyone who likes sci fi. An easy read with cool science and winning characters, I understand why there's hype about it and could maybe see it becoming a classic.

SPOILERS:

Absolutely loved being able to trust Rocky throughout the book, no dishonesty or betrayal. This and how the entire world works together does start to feel a little idealistic, but it's a nice change of pace from other apocalyptic / alien stories.

If you know me from work, you don't see this. Better than the first in the series imo, minus a chunk of it where the main character was annoying (made it fun to talk about with friends I guess). But the end made me really curious to see where she goes from here

If you know me from work, you don't see this. Easy and fun read, found the buildup to the political subplot interesting. Good world building, felt like How to Train Your Dragon movie (I haven't read the book yet) x Harry Potter series x something off Wattpad... this was my first enemies-to-lovers and it definitely threw me for a loop. Picked up the second in the series basically immediately.

I really had a hard time connecting to a main character with no weaknesses. Some slow repetitive bits that maybe could've been shorter, but really enjoyed the unique sci-fi fantasy type world this had. And by the end it was a quicker read, will probably read the next one when it comes out.

WOW, what a book man. Aside from some random parts toward the end, absolutely superb. The most I've connected to characters in a while. Will probably reread. Very Good. 9/10 overall. Beautiful writing. Real characters. Excellent worldbuilding. Mwah, chef's kiss. 10/10 recommend.

Made me think & reflect. Some stories had themes I connected with more than others, some stories had writing styles I connected to better, and one story I started reading and skipped because I had no idea what was going on.

This was one of the books that got me back into reading. The Greek mythology and female empowerment theme was great, but it definitely had periods that dragged and there wasn't much plot (which is understandable - the main character is immortal).

Man, it's been a while since a book has gotten me emotional like this one did. Great story, great characters. You just gotta prepare for a little bit of fruitiness ;)
