Novel: Double Share
Author: Nathan Lowell
Rating: 2 of 5
I adore this series. This one, though, I had to almost put down.
Ish is a problem solver. In this one, Ish solves problems of what happens when shitty people are in charge of a spaceship.
Those worse excesses are not ones I want in my recreational reading. Namely, sexual harassment and assault.
While it is handled well, I had to stop, put the book down, and reach out to friends who had read it to make sure of that before continuing.
Hence the low rating.

In my current WIP I added an otherwise ethically challenged woman military officer who nipped all that in the bud because I just didn't want to include sexual assault and rape in the cavalcade of horrific other stuff in the book.
ReplyDeleteI can't claim to be surprised, Josh Roby . Its takes some cleverness to show horrible behaviors without ever resorting to sexual violence, but I am not surprised you put in the effort.
