I'm a stressed out mom that works way too much and uses reading as my escape time. I've been really enjoying picking up books that I know absolutely nothing about other than the title and giving it a go. This book roulette has been helping me push my boundaries and read books I likely never would have picked up before.

My rating system: (100% of my reading is through my library or online content, for reference) 5 - I absolutely loved it and will be buying a copy for my bookshelf! 4 - I really enjoyed this and will pick up a used copy from somewhere to share with others. 3 - This was pretty good, I can see why people like it. 2 - This just really wasn't quite for me. 1* - This should have been a DNF...

I had a hard time making it through the first half of this one. It felt disjointed due to jumping around between multiple groups too quickly. Once the binding event happened in the last 50% of the book, it became easier to get through and follow along. I also just had a rough time connecting to the characters. I stuck it out through the first half because I did enjoy the dive into the Exodan culture and how they're still trying to find their place in the universe. Definitely my least favorite in the series so far.

@raphadue Thanks! :] As of right now, I'm not enjoying this book as much as the previous ones. I'm really happy with the further world building, but it's missing the smoothness that I felt made the first 2 so enjoyable to me. But we'll see. I'm close to half way through at this point.
