I listened to the audiobook and needed what felt like ages to finish it - which is weird because it's a rather short story. I expected a different story than what we get. This is another contender for the "well, that escalated quickly" category. There were some interesting aspects, especially the maths angle to it all. But overall, it felt a little thin to me, somehow.
Es casi más un cuento largo que una pequeña novela, pero me gusta la imaginación puesta al servicio de unos pocos recursos bien usados. No sé si la autora o yo no manejamos bien el tema de la culpa y la violencia, porque matar a un montón de gente, pasa como desapercibido a fin de cuentas... O por ahí Binti odia mucho más de lo que es consciente a su opresor.
I love these kinda books: Shorter books with an extremely unique world that don't worry about a tidy ending. This is a thee book series, and it was good, but I mighta just has been as happy if I'd stopped after this one.
A novel and ambitious concept, but I felt it might have worked better in a full full length novel, everything felt a little cramped and under-explored in a novella.
