Not sure how to feel about it reminding me of Ireland. I'm Irish myself, but the Reds are described like Irish stereotypes. They're red-headed, drunks, dance and sing and keep the rebel songs to themselves, and there's a rebel group that blows stuff up. I think if they're based on Irish people and we delve into it, it could be interesting, but everytime I've read a book and it bases the slaves on Irish people it's just ultra racist. Like Sarah J. Maas calling us mud people and dumb, and J.K Rowling making the Irish student always blow stuff up. Idk at the moment I'm intrigued but nervous ig

Barely far enough in to have an opinion - just wanted to say that it's a bit hard to read because of the weird writing. It's not written like how they spoke in 1912, it's more written like an English assignment if a 14 year old trying to distract the teacher from the actual material and focus on the writing, with the words he's using. I'll get used to it, it's just a little tricky at the start of the book

This book is making me feel so smart!! I'm not far into it but there's been plenty of science stuff, and I myself adore space, and have for as long as I can remember, I love it so so so much!! But I'm someone who tends to assume I'm the dumbest in the room, and people love to act as if I am, too, so this is just lots of fun. I've known everything hes talked about so far, and understood it without looking it up and I feel smart!! This is big for me, I'm very very happy
