1. Improbable romance. This is my ultimate catnip. Probably why I read The Host like 12 times. In this case, Cleo falls in love with a hologram. It’s just awesome that you’re thinking, how’s this going to work? Then when it does… Double whammy feels. 2. Sapphic love. The romance between Cleo and Billie was just lovely. The pacing to the love declarations was a little fast but fit well in the overall plot of the story. This book was a specific Pride Month pick for me. 3. Space adventure! A clever mystery unfolds as the heroes hurtle through space. 4. Found family. Our quartet of intrepid explorers are like any loving family. They bicker, they call “BS” when BS is called for, and they love and support each other 112 percent. This story works because all four in the main group get their moments to shine. 5. Debut novel? Bravo. Though some of the prose was a little clunky in parts, but I think Hamilton has room to grow, and I expect she will.
I read this book twice since I got it five days ago, and I know I’ll read it again and again....more
