Trauma 🌽

Revisado: 04-02-25

Coercion and ignoring boundaries are not consent. From crazy abusive ex to SA, possessiveness, and coercion. DNF - do not recommend.

Dystopian, everyone loses

Revisado: 01-31-25

I’m so sick of glorifying male violence.

TSTL MC- but physically miraculous: MC and villains overcoming fatal injuries over and over.

Dubious consent

Revisado: 07-14-24

This feels like a man wrote a woman to be the MC because he thinks women can get away with SA, especially if they're "hot".

Great MC!

Revisado: 06-05-24

I love that this reluctant heroine still didn’t make any super bad decisions. No sneaking or lying or miscommunications dragging the story. This was quick, solid, fun- and hot sex scenes.

Not for me

Revisado: 01-08-24

I'm not a huge fan of radio-show-style audiobooks. The music, sound effects, and long pauses between chapters are jarring compared to the video that's already playing in my head. I guess it's not entirely fair, I knew that going in. But the story premise was great and I'm a Brendan Frasier fan so figured I'd give it a go. I think everyone did a great job. The only problem I had with the story is that there is so much going on, the ending felt abrupt. It makes sense if this is a planned series- there's so much potential there.

Fine- interesting premise

Revisado: 11-20-23

I bought this for the narrator. I was annoyed by characters acting unlike who their core personas were supposed to be. I feel like Veronica Reeves especially acts completely out of character. There are no archaeologists/anthropologists who would be turned off of their world-changing anthropology/archaeology work by discovering bodies that were... slightly more recent than they were expecting? That "Oh these are actual AMERICANS! I suddenly 'respect the dead' and don't want to move human knowledge forward anymore" AYFKM? That would make 0 difference on persuading a scientist to turn a murderous capitalist. This is a murder fantasy of "other", with humans as bloodthirsty monsters even *after* "discovering" that the enemy in question is likely a group of mentally stunted and inbred people who lost their history, who were war refugees just living their lives in hiding to avoid hurting the native populations and defending themselves when attacked. Bizarrely I think the author is trying to say that genocide is good, actually, because humans and "Merica and maybe money? Logic unclear.

Lovely and endearing

Revisado: 07-12-23

This book is so fun and sweet. Can’t wait to listen to more and find out how big a house witch can love!

But um... +1 on the weird AAVE/cat combination.

This was fine

The story was good. I felt Ray Porter carried it a bit as it got muddled toward the end.

RW fear-based stroke fest

Revisado: 05-24-23

Pearl clutching about increasing Islamic terrorism since 9/11 (so a parallel timeline I guess), the evils of science, the world falling apart to globalists and currency destabilizing (I'm sure silver and gold are doing great), Texas and other southern states seceding (Lonestar Nation, LMFAO) with a sincere posit that they would have a functional military... and drug decriminalization *causing* drug crime somehow (the opposite of reality)? The main villain is a terrorist group called "Millenials" with a tagline statement mirroring Anonymous. Their agenda is to prevent the "Singularity" which they said so far is AI taking over I guess? It's rough, hoss (lol)... I'm struggling to finish this.

The narrators are all great. The story is a little difficult to believe, humans are curious by nature. The society backslid and stagnated way too quickly. I did like seeing the language progression, I thought it was well done.
