I hate sci-fi so the fact that i gave this 5 stars speaks for itself. It took me an embarrassing amount of time to get into the book but my god did i get into it. I genuinely couldn't put it down once i reached act 2 or whatever that was called. I'm sitting on my couch right now trying to make sense of what the fuck i just read because this was truly a masterpiece. I'm flabbergasted at everything. I'm honestly speechless right now and I don't think i can make any relevant point apart from space lesbians are really cool and wtf is that ending. I cannot believe it took me so long to start reading this and now here i am on a monday night, knowing that there's a 95% chance i'm going to start reading Harrow the Ninth right now and not get any sleep even though i really should. I truly feel insane right now this book has rewritten my brain chemistry i feel like i'm twelve years old again reading percy jackson for the first time and i don't think any book i've read in the last few years have made me feel like that wich sounds as insane as it is. What the hell.
