Ya'll need to stop pretending like it's the best piece of fiction out there. I mean seriously, ya'll hyped it up way too much.
It was good. But I expected more. Main character is a mildly funny science nerd. That is it. There's no personality. No other defining traits. Hobbies. Or nuances for that matter.
His interactions with Stratt & Rocky were what elevated the overall story. Those 2 were the MVPs.
As for the plot, it came off as a bit superficial. The whole "problem of the day" format got boring after the first 15-16 chapters. Author didn't really delve into the personal nitty-gritty aspects of it all. Throughout the first half, we heard so much about Ilyukhina & Yáo Li-Jie but when flashbacks finally arrived, we barely got any bonding scenes with them and Grace. Hell, we didn't even get any quips from Ilyukhina who was supposedly the most funny one.
Rocky stole the show though. Only character except Eva I genuinely felt for.
3.5/5 ⭐⭐⭐💫
