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............
