I did it! I finally stumbled across a Sci-Fi book that I both loved and could understand!
The characters in this book are so well-written. In a dual-timeline story, I usually end up liking one story much more than the other. In this case, I loved them both equally! Dove from the 1960’s storyline is my absolute favorite! I think there should be a whole book just written on her character. A strong, take-no-crap-from-anyone woman and a problem solver to boot. Yep, my favorite. Anza was also written so well that I felt like both Dove and Anza should be my new best friends.
The events that transpired at the beginning of the book were soooo good and creepy. I was on the edge of my seat trying to eagerly read faster and faster so that I could see what was going to happen next. The story keeps you guessing through most of the book as it adds new information for the characters to try and work through and understand.
While there were no slow spots and the story kept moving along, I did think that it was about 40-50 pages too long. It was fine as-is but I think it could have been even more hard-hitting if it was just a bit shorter.
