First half of the book seems just fine when reading for the first time, but man on the reread the whole book was really enjoyable. The second half of the book was a “read-in-one-session” kinda deal for both my first and second read through, and the way the history/lost civilization stuff unravels is everything to me
Honestly I think I liked it better the second time around for spoiler reasons but once you can piece everything together it is just so satisfying
original rating = 4/5
reread rating = 5/5
I’m sure there are plenty of valid criticisms of this book but tbh the last 50ish pages are burned into my brain forever so I’m unwilling to accept them
