Great concept, poor execution.

Characters: The main cast had potential to be multi-dimensional, complex characters, but instead they were just whiny, hypocritical, annoying, and so dang SARCASTIC all the time for no reason.

Mars was the worst of all them; for some reason, he puts his main female friends, Caddie and Aurora, in higher regard than his six friends combined (with semi-crushes on both of them), being flighty and controlling.

Caddie came second in the ranks. First, I just have to point out that it's lazy, unimaginative, and LAME to name a character after a CARRIER because she's said to 'hold her friend group together'. 😑... Secondly, she has no real personality; one minute she's sarcastic, the next she's shy, the next she's putting her foot down—there isn't one personality type she consistently sticks with, she's all over the place! And most infuriating: She literally a telepath\empath\psychic, and her SUPERNATURAL abilities are played down as 'headaches' she gets when 'something bad is about to happen'. WHAT?! The girl is reading MINDS, and you cheesy writers dismiss it as 'headaches'?! She belongs with the X-Men!

JP was just another aggressive, brawny trans-gender kid who made his opinion clear on everything.

And Aurora ... I just don't understand her. She's a rebellious artist who enlists Mars to get into trouble with her. I don't know what Mars and Orion see in her. With the whole Martian situation, she did have the best intentions at heart, and the same when she ran for president, but she doesn't bring anything to the table other then being a needy control-freak who would abandon everyone she cared about if it meant getting what she wanted. Toothpick, Daisy, Orion, and Julia were by far my favorites.

Story-wise: I can't tell you how many plot-holes and inconsistencies there were throughout the show ... and to think none of the journey matted because Oliver Pruitt didn't have real reason for kidnapping and attempting to murder hundreds of little kids, sending his son on a wild goose chase to explain why he couldn't bring himself to care about him, other than him simply being obsessed with exploring space and possibilities to put himself in power.

This was a hot mess, I'm not gonna lie.

The story is compelling but basic and lacking, the worldbuilding is thrown in your face with no in-depth explanations until much later in the book. Combined with Myra and Canter's dialogue and the narrator's exaggeration of voices, every character either sounds sassy, irritated, or flirtatiously sarcastic, and not to mention the overwhelming STEM propaganda it encourages. All in all, it's a mess, but Canter and Lila are the most likeable characters out of the group.
