Rezensionen

An intriguing premise -- a girl from our world wakes up in a world without men -- squanders its possibilities as the author flounders about trying to find a direction. Is it a fish-out-of-water story? An LBGTQ+ romance? A comedy? A fantasy? A sci-fi thriller? All of the above in alternation every few pages as creative whims shift about too often to do justice to any of the elements?

Plot developments and the character's reactions don't have any real believability even if you suspend disbelief. The emotional ending is maybe okayish, but the resolution of the alternate reality plot is super clumsy, with a nothing villain introduced in the final chapters to artificially inject some wholly unnecessary action.

The whole thing just ends up being too dumb for me.
