The way the relationship between Dex and Mosscap matured in this book, is so charming and nostalgic. I love how they both explore existential ideas in a way that makes you, as the reader, feel and think about those ideas.

Good enough
3 stars
I did enjoy the book but it felt like some chapters were a bit repetitive therefore unnecessary. Some of the language is not appropriate and it has been correctly pointed out throughout the years. Besides that, the story is good and original; and the ending is good.

Not what I thought of

I am still processing this book. I find the story pretty interesting. It reminds me of how I felt when I first read Attack on Titan. I had lots of questions regarding the titans and throughout the story most of my questions were answered. The issue I had with the book, in my opinion, was the writing style. It was just not for me. Lots of long paragraphs made it a bit tedious in my opinion but I got over it when I read the ending. Not sure if I want to read the rest of the trilogy so I’ll keep thinking of the story and will do some research in order to fully commit to the series.

Made me start believing in a positive change… again
4 stars
I went into this book being a bit negative about climate change and the climate movement worldwide. I thought we “lost” and wouldn’t be able prevent enormous damage to the planet. I saw myself in a situation similar to the ending of the movie “Don’t look up” but I don’t think of that anymore.
The book gives you a decent amount of history of the different climate movements (pacifist and not so pacifist) and compales them to other social movements and the type of violence or lack there of that they used in order to achieve their goals.
I really recommend this book a lot!

New favourite
4 stars
The book is so packed of action, emotion, mysticism and lots of character development. Loved it. Coming from reading most of the Foundation series, I wasn’t sure if I me being a fanboy, Iwas going to like it another big Sci-Fi saga but I did. Can’t wait to read the next books!
René reviewed Frankenstein, or, The Modern Prometheus by Mary Shelley
Awesome read
5 stars
The book deals mith such complex topics in an incredibly well written story. I read the first part of the 1831 version and then switched to the 1818 version (I read all three parts) and both versions are intriguing. It’s going to be in my Spooky Season list!
