3/5 stars - This book felt like a bit of a mish-mash. Part romance, part sci-fi, part tragedy, part romance ... and that's fine, most stories are more than one thing. But this one felt a little too jarring in some places to be entirely a great experience. I did really enjoy what I think of as "the first part," where Nate, Alex, and Artemis Darth Vader are at the cabin in the woods. Once all the chase and trauma re: Artemis and Alex's "before" story opens up, it became something different for me. I loved the humor of Art and the quiet bond Alex and she had from the start. Many laugh out loud moments from her, for sure. A big no thanks to Oren and his bs, but SO MUCH vegan food shade! Won't even touch a soup without meat? Huh? Ever heard of tomato soup? Ever heard of potato leek soup? C'mon. And the spice levels between Nate and Alex felt a bit sudden to be really believable, I felt. There were some journeying moments that made the book feel longer than it needed to be as well. But on the whole, Art was the star of this novel.
