Leviathan Wakes

4.5 stars.Oh my days THAT WAS GOOOOOD.I can't even say I really came out of that book particularly LIKING anyone in particular. It was just a damn good story, about people. People don't act like they “should” in every situation. People are flawed. Even good people. I really enjoyed the development of Miller as a character, though I wouldn't say I liked him.

Nuff said.Lost a half star, as there were points where the story dragged just a tiny bit more that I would have liked. But definitely worth a read!
