Took me a while to get into it, initially feeling like Annihilation with a more academic main character. Eventually though (2/3 of the way through), the Tchaikovsky goodness started to show through in some cool ideas about evolution and ecology. While it had several lines that stood out to me, it frequently felt like they had similar variations scattered repeatedly, like the author was workshopping the idea and couldn't decide which to pick. Maybe a stylistic choice, but one I found annoying while reading.
