pick4.5/5
Ceelander and Ste Etienne are forced to land on Shroud, a planet where the atmosphere is so think that no light makes it to the planets surface and life evolved to “see“ through ever louder radio waves. Escape is all but impossible, and they've attracted the attention of Shroud's many forms of life.
I couldn't put this book down. I loved everything about the journey across Shroud as well as the alien life that lives on Shroud.

pickIn a distant future, humanity expands outward in an endless quest for resources that can be exploited, and individuals must justify their existence to merit food, oxygen and even consciousness. When an accident sends Juna and Mai to the surface of a wildly inhospitable moon targeted for resource extraction, they face a hostile environment and first contact with a life form unlike anything humanity has ever encountered. Fascinating.

Four people travel back in time to relive an important memory. When they are stuck in the past after their allotted hour has run out, they wonder whether they might be able to stay in the past and change the events that made them come back. Although the four people don't know each other it is soon clear that they might actually share the pivotal moment in their lives. ⬇️
#aardvark picks- grabbed another #camplitsy25 book!
so-soEmotional damage! Honestly if you want to get a flavour for what this book is going to do to you, just go to the two page author's note On Black Cats and Books at the back, you'll get a feel for the devastation.
There are still moments where what made the first book special to me reappears, but this is a second book in a trilogy? series? and while it ends one arc of conflict, it makes the book mostly about said conflict. 1/?
