The E.T. Guy

Not your typical office romance. :)

I felt the story was a bit slow to start, and I'll admit I didn't like Lois all that much in the beginning. Though that changed as we got to know both her and Zir better over the course of the story.

What I really liked about the book was the world building, especially the description of the Volin culture and how Lois, despite being confronted with it and working with members of alien cultures on a daily basis, found that there was still so much more to discover, to learn, and to understand.

In the light of the current political climate around the world, the backdrop of the refugee intake center hit a bit too close to home for comfort, and made for a more serious story than I had expected. In a way, I got more than I had bargained for, but I absolutely mean that in a good way.

Technical side note: There were a couple of typos / missing words, and the paragraph spacing on Kindle was a bit odd (too much space in dialogues, for example).

This book is such fun annnnd next thing I knew I finished reading all the books in this series and could totally go for more. They are fun, lighter, and I totally want to read more about this world. I do think this first book is my favorite, but all are worth reading.
