So much wasted potential with this one!

First, let’s jump right outta the gate with raping a dying woman and call it dub-con. That is straight up non-con. Ew. 

My biggest gripe though is that this novella is split into three vignettes which doesn’t allow for any expansion or development of the human or Nepenthe characters. The story just doesn’t…go anywhere. The characters meet, they have sex, then it moves onto the next couple. What happens to them after?? Where are they going? How are the eggs doing? Are they going to be actual couples or are the women just incubators?? Even though I’m asking these questions, I don’t actually care about any of them because we didn’t get anything of value for any of them. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
