I'm not likely going to make my goals this year, so I am in no rush and am savoring all the language and philosophy layering this science fiction story. Media around the release of the final book have dubbed it "Hopepunk." I have no idea if I agree as the third volume did not end hopefully at all. Can't wait to see how it all plays out during the holiday reading season.
Now that I am positive I likely won't reach my goals, I have been very slowly savoring these books. There is so much philosophy and I will stop every now and then to go have a look at a referenced person or book.
