I initially read this book when I was 10, now I'm coming back 6 years later and remember why I liked this so much. The first time I consumed the audio in a few days, this time it was 2 XP. I thoroughly enjoy the worldbuilding and politics, Nemisis is awesome... my mom just read the first book too(for the fisrt time), she said Nemisis reminds her of me because of how she talks :o. I loved the part where she adopts Deadly >:3 he is such a dog.

Okay so i got this book because Chloe Gong said on her tiktok that it was really good so of course I had to buy it. I just finished it like a minute ago and I'm still processing this was really really good. I'd say it's pretty fast paced and I love the main character nemesis (i love her name too). She had great character development and is literally so cool. I have to say this book was a lot like The Cruel Prince, but it's in space in the future and there are obviously many elements that are different. I really think the ideas and the characters as well as some plot points are very similar though. This is not a bad thing; I love The Cruel Prince it's literally my favorite book so I have really high expectations for the next two books in this series, The Empress and The Nemesis.
