Rigel

Absolutely bonkers, but I enjoyed the process.

The plot loses me a bit on this one. There's just an excessive amount of things going wrong all at the same time.

Thoroughly enjoyed the entire trilogy but was very surprised by how better the last book is. The novel physics interplays with the plot marvelously, I don't think any other time travel narrative even comes close. 

Ughh where to start with this book. Overall the story is quite good, but the characters are so hilariously stereotypical of a diverse and radical crowd it's hard to get through. For one, literally every “white guy” is either evil or just lame. The main character is obsessed with anyone who's queer/poc to the point of fetishization, and overall is not well thought out. While it tells a touching story, I can't say it does so in a productive way.

I was really hoping to enjoy this book based on reviews and summaries I read but after completing it I can solidly say I did not enjoy the process.

If you're looking for a complex sci-fi story with interesting commentarty intertwined, while this book at first my sound perfect I would stay away from it.

The storry is slow and drawn out with no real conclusions, and overall extremely unsatisfying. While the novel touches on concepts like race, sexuality and mental illness, it does little more than say “hey these things exist” and by the nature of the book does little to place them in society.

All in all, I found this book more unpleasant than anything else, would skip.
