An interesting premise, a likeable cast of characters, and a futuristic sci-fi setting? Yes, please!

This independently published debut novel surprised me by being on equal ground with so many debuts published by the big publishing houses. In fact, it's better than some I've read. It's well-written, pretty well polished, and hard to put down.

The relationship between Amara and Ouen is complicated, but not due to the more common tropes. It's a bit odd until you finally find out why they're connected the way they are, and raises the stakes once the climax unfolds. It all comes together just enough to lay the groundwork for the second book, and I am here for it! 

I found it hard to put down, honestly. Stupid adulting forced me to sleep instead of reading!

It ends on a cliffhanger, and I immediately bought the second book because I needed to know what happens next! 

I think the only thing it needs is an experienced, professional editing hand to give it the last boost it needs to read like a great book. It's a phenomenally good book -- no doubt -- and I would highly recommend it to anyone who loves sci-fi, found family, and a little bit of mystery. 

I do think Jubilee has something great to give the world, and I would love to see her work in bookstore windows.
