Reads like the author had a genuinely great idea and then wasn't quite sure how to end it. The journey is worth it even if the destination disappoints slightly.

This is exactly the kind of book I'd recommend to someone who wasn't sure if they'd like the genre. Safe, well-made, and engaging without being demanding.

I liked it more than I expected and less than I hoped. The setup was excellent; the payoff was adequate. A three-star book with five-star ambitions.

Good but not great. The first half is stronger than the second, and I was more gripped by the ideas than the execution. Worth reading once.

This is the kind of book I'll press into people's hands with a slightly unhinged look in my eyes. One of the best I've read this year without a doubt.

Really, really good. I stayed up way too late three nights in a row and I don't regret a single minute of lost sleep. The characters feel like people I actually know.
