It was okay. I absolutely loved the premise (when I saw it I knew I had to read it) and very much enjoyed the world building. The actual story and writing, however, fell a little flat. It took me quite some time to actually get invested in the story (although the start was exciting) and then it only managed to hold my attention in waves. I enjoyed the middle the most and the ending is interesting, but I haven't decided if I'm going to read the second book yet. This book wasn't as gay as I was expecting it to be (I know it's bi representation and all bi relationships are equally valid, but I thought I'd still mention it since some people are specifically interested in wlw relationships and might be a little disappointed. Maybe it picks up in the second book?)

While my rating might not be the highest, I know others will love it so don't let my experience put you off if this sounds like your kind of book.

Reading the NetGalley eARC, review entirely my own.
DNF at 3%, at chapter 2, I stopped. The author gave me these characters who weren't going to be allowed to be reasonably competent, not enough to survive in this very dangerous world, and I can't deal with that.
