In Ascension

DNF at ~100 pages. Definitely not my cup of tea. I just couldn't get into the story; the writing style simply didn't grab my attention. Even though the initial idea sounded really cool, the overall plot felt incredibly boring. What I found particularly frustrating was how the book seemed to handle some hefty topics, yet it simultaneously completely lacked depth and grounding for me. I struggled immensely to form any real emotional connection with the main character. It just didn't feel authentic.

I liked the story and the twist in the end. The whole storytelling started to drift off a bit though and the chapters started to become unnecessarily long in the end, in my opinion. It was a good book, but could have been more compact.
