    DNF
    Enjoyment: Quality: Characters: Plot:

    DNF. I really wanted to like this. I've never read a Seanan McGuire book and had heard nothing but good things about her work, and I loved the premise. But I just did not get along with this one.

    Contrived dialogue, and run-on scientific explanations wedged into what should have been emotional character moments left to breathe. It might have been masterful if these were intentional character choices, but it doesn't seem like they were. This story feels like it needed heavy editing.
