katrina is one of the most insufferable protagonists i've ever experienced
according to her all of this is because her parents missed one music recital when she was an adult and now she refuses to function at all as a human being?? what, is the twist going to be that she killed someone as a kid or smth stupid and that's the real reason her parents disowned her? honestly i'm not even interested in continuing this book but i don't have anything better on hand rn

it is very funny that the start of the book goes "okay there are all these really cool unique interesting aliens and a woman whose job is working with them. the book isn't about that though. actually we're not really going to have any aliens at all. enjoy!"

there's some cool body horror and some interesting concepts but this man isn't half as good at writing characters cultures and plot twists as he thinks he is
hey though, for a sci-fi book in 2001 written by a man it's not anywhere near as misogynistic as it could've been! i mean, all the women are pretty heavily defined by the men in their lives but at least they. y'know. do stuff

i was promised unique and interesting aliens and i guess that's what was delivered but my godddd the characters and more specifically their dialogue is so painful. also why does mac talk to herself out loud CONSTANTLY like she has a daily quota for saying pointless shit. also the plot is lackluster and predictable
this felt like half of a book. am i interested enough to read the second to see if the plot is actually going to do anything interesting at some point?? eh............
