I normally love sci-fi stuff, but something about this story just didn't click with me. I struggled through the early chapters, because I just didn't care about Tritcheon as a character. It wasn't until her recon trip to earth, that I stopped having to force myself to finish the chapters, but I still wasn't truly invested in the story. Most books of this length, I will knock out in 1 or 2 days, yet it took me 2 weeks to finish this one. It wasn't awful enough to abandon without finishing, but I won't be re-reading it, ever.
