These covers were so pretty that even my spoiler-lovin mind didn't stop to browse the story a bit before buyin.

Pickpick

Overall, I enjoyed Rebel Seoul a whole lot. It‘s billed as “Pacific Rim” meets K-Dramas, and while that‘s accurate, it certainly favors the K-Drama aspect more. Lots of great characters, excellent world-building, and some good action (though more scenes with the giant robots fighting would have been nice).

This line made me chuckle (and want a God Machine of my own!):

“GMs (God Machines), in general, are fun to pilot. They‘re just purposed to kill people, which makes them terrible toys.”

“All I know is what your life was worth to me, and to me, your life was worth the world.”‪

Damn, this was a really great chapter. Closure without closure. Rebel Seoul is starting to fill in the blanks in Jaewon‘s past, and these are certainly the best pieces of the plot, so far.‬

I‘m frustrated at how long it‘s taken to read this book. It‘s not a fault in the story. When I read it, I enjoy it a lot. Life has just gotten in the way...repeatedly. I have to get reoriented every time I pick it up. Jumping back in and I‘ve got about a quarter of the book left. Hoping this will be the last time I have to deal with an interruption. Fingers crossed. #YA #WeNeedDiverseBooks #AxieOh

I like this description of freedom in Axie Oh‘s Rebel Seoul, partly because of what it says about the character sharing it.

I‘m impressed by how Axie Oh has managed to keep Jaewon an engaging character while still withholding so much about him. He‘s so invested in the moment that his unwillingness to think in detail on his past doesn‘t come across as forced even though there‘s plenty to be explored there and I‘m more than a third of the way into the book. #RebelSeoul #AxieOh #YA #WeNeedDiverseBooks #scifi #youngadult #ERMadLibs

Seven chapters into Rebel Seoul, Axie Oh finally introduces the giant robot war machines. In many ways, the book has gone against my expectations. There have been a few uneven moments, but it‘s fast-paced. I‘m also intrigued by the world building. I‘m eager to see what kind of arc Axie Oh plans for Jaewon. It reads like an anime. #RebelSeoul #AxieOh #scifi #youngadult #YA
