Although I do not read sci-fi books, this one certainly sounds enticing. Great review!

I wonder how Vishnu will balance his affection for humans and that of trying to save his populace. This seems like a captivating story. Thanks for the wonderful review.

I mostly lost interest in them after high school, but this one was definitely worth the read. Thank you for reading!

I sometimes think I should be too old for young adult novels, yet I usually enjoy them 😁.

I am going to add this to my shelves after the positive review, despite the ending leaving a few open elements.

I’m quite interested in the human-alien relationship. Too bad, you lost your interest in the story at some point. I enjoyed your review.

It was definitely different (in a good way) from the alien stories I’m used to hearing. Thank you for reading!
