I finally got around to this because I pulled a prompt to read the lowest rated book on my tbr - and you're telling me this insanely good book is poorly rated? I don't know why this isn't shelved with science fiction. Maybe that's why it hasn't reached the right readers? I understand it might not be for everyone but it was so for me. Genuinely one of the best things I have read this year and something I think I could unique revisit. If you can hear me Elisabeth Thomas, please write more Elisabeth Thomas!!
