⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/5

I literally just finished this book as I’m writing this and wow…let’s see if I can collect my thoughts because that book was 🤯. As someone who has never read or been interested in sci-fi, I’m telling you right now that I love this book (and you will too). 

Characters✨

Savannah - She was a very surprising character. To be honest I wasn’t expecting her to turn out as she did by the end but I am NOT complaning 🤩. She’s definitely chaotic and as quoted by the author herself, a bit “unhinged”. I love her. 

Jesse - If I am being completely honest…he was the most original love interest I have read in a long time! He wasn’t another cardboard copy (is that even a saying Gabriella?) of the ‘bad boy’ stereotype (and believe me I still love those). His actions were all so intrinsic to his past and his deeper, inner self in a way that I just have not seen! Man, am I DYING to learn all about him!

Jasmine - Chaotic for sure and super interesting! I love the mystery around her! I hope she comes into play more!

Melanie - What a whirlwind. This woman is a FORCE to mess with (and ‘mess with’ I would not). She’s a really strong and awesome character! 

Eli - Sadly I don’t have much to say on him. I never connected to his character and I did find the earlier interactions with him a bit off. But by the end I was okay with him. 

Plot✨ 

Um WOW that plot is INTENSE. I absolutely adore how the story begins in such a cozy/supernatural/spooky vibe and turns to a total sci-fi war zone in the span of one book! It was wild and so, so fun! 

Romance✨

Okay honestly, the romance really picks up at the second half of the book! I absolutely love the dynamic of the characters and how at first they realistically didn’t trust each other. But wow are they fun to read about 😂. I am very excited to see their development! They’re such an interesting pairing and I don’t think I’ll ever get over them.

Overall✨

Overall, this was a great debut and I truly believe Arabella’s works will go places! She is so creative and talented! This book made me smile, laugh, and want to cry! I am SO excited to read the sequel and visit space 😍. 

Dear Arabella, DO NOT HESITATE to put more Jesse and Savannah moments. Please. A lot! And if you’ve got any extra scenes that didn’t make it into the cut, my DMs are open. ;)

I highly recommend this book! And if you preorder now, you can get a really cool bookmark! As well you can preorder *signed* copies straight from Arabella’s site! Don’t miss out, this book is SO worth it!
