Page turning bgt selesai sekali duduk. It was a well researched, well written book πŸ₯ΉπŸ‘Œ bener sih, jarang ni nemu novel yg tokoh utamanya kerja di BMKG. Seru bgt banyak dapet trivia baru tentang per-cuacaan. Engga berasa info dumping. 

Penulisannya super smooth. Isu yang diangkat ga cuma ttg lingkungan dan perubahan iklim aja, tapi juga menyangkut masyarakat adat, pelecehan seksual, tambang illegal, dan sampe penyakit klinis. Semua isunya ngalir dan nyambung masuk ke cerita. I love it. Tulisannya sangat atmospheric. Tetap dikasih bumbu2 mistis when it was science after all. Dibikin pembacanya tu gamang antara masuk akal sama engga. 

Karakternya well written semua and I how they were made to be imperfect. The emotion and hatred toward Asa.....🀌🀌 Karakter developmentnya oke bgt si untuk semua org (but at what cost....) 😭πŸ₯Ή isinya orgil semua
Tapi seneng karena in the end it fills the puzzle perfectly 🫢🏽

Ini buku pertama Kai Elian yang aku baca dan langsung suka!!!!
Will look forward to the other works!!!
