I liked this book but I don’t like the style of writing. It’s very distinctive and hard to get used it. It makes it harder to immerse myself into the story and enjoy the story line. As I noticed it, it did remind me of Atlas Six which also was a bit clunky with six plus points of view and a cerebral way of analyzing everything, but I didn’t enjoy Blake’s style as much here. To be fair it does add to the storyline and strangeness of the book but I just don’t like it as much so I can’t rate this higher than three stars. Very unique story though but I feel like so much of the book is spent on the extra frivolities that the actual story and content is very short.
