She/Her. 20s. Trying to get back into reading after falling off when I was younger. I think I like queer romance, manga and SF/F, as well as some non-fiction about topics close to my heart like dance music, videogames, drugs and computers. My main fedi is currently @throatmuppet@xyzzy.link.

Elise reviewed The Hades Calculus by Maria Ying
Maria Ying: The Hades Calculus
Delightful, Surprising, Well-executed, overhyped?
4 stars
The duo behind the psuedonym Maria Ying deliver a compelling tale of messed up lesbians embroiled in the politics and violence of a far flung Olympian future. However, following the fandom reaction lead me to believe I was going to experience an even more stark and depraved setting than was provided. Very happy with what I read, excited for more when it comes, but another tally in the "you should never read twitter" column.

Slow starting, which I'm surprised by. Opens with a low stakes action scene that I had trouble visualizing. Nurse Ratched is the most interesting character so far.
