What a journey, and this is only the beginning!
To begin with, I was unsure about this novel and found the first few chapters needed me to push through, but, it was well worth it. Finding out about the characters and their adventures in looking for the truth about what has and still is happening to them kept me hooked.
The search for the story of the main characters past and why she is now an assassin is an intriguing idea and is well told. The author leaves it on a good cliff hanger which made me go straight into reading the second book in the series, I'll review that separately.
The characters felt realistic and believable, the plot, whilst set in a dystopian future, was believable and kept up the mystery of what had actually happened making it fitting for whatever the reader chose.
Definitely worth a read.

I adored this season, and honestly think this program gets better each year.
It is such a different show from when it first started, I am so glad they fully leant into the more comedic, and that 'not take ourselves too seriously' attitude because it has paid off.

This season looked a lot individualising episodes (whilst easily following the main arc too), paying homage to so many other shows and genres, and they always do it so well.

This show genuinely makes me laugh out loud, yet still has its own poignant moments, and touches on broader issues without forcing an opinion, it just occasionally makes you think.

I love the cast, they have fully embraced diversity, and I hope they will do more with this as time goes on as well.

What other show do you know that would take a fight scene and choreography it to a Sisqo song? Fantastic 👌
