Glitches & Stitches: Death Violation | Nicole Givens Kurtz

1 post | 1 read

Violence happened every day in The District. Blood currency was popular.That didn't explain why Dr. Leonard Cho was killed. The robotics engineer's death seemed to confirm the rumors swirling around that The District was becoming a more dangerous place to live.Inspector Regulators Fawn Granger and Briscoe Baker had investigated many strange cases, but nothing like this one. Fawn, exhausted by her experiences, wants a new life away from The District; she plans to move to the Southwest Territories and start a ranch there. Briscoe understands this is their last death violation.What they discover is a scientist obsessed with cybernetics, an organization guilty of human rights violations, and a territory who is indifferent to the wellbeing of its citizens.

Glitches & Stitches: Death Violation | Nicole Givens Kurtz

Meh

so-so

First of all, I really like the overall idea - I am very into futuristic settings Ć la Bladerunner. I liked the partnership of Granger & Briscoe with absolutely no romantic overtures between them, & there was LGBTQ+ representation in the main relationships.

The concept definitely has potential (I love the cover - very striking) but I found it lacking in detail overall. (Continued)

OutsmartYourShelf As a reader, I felt dropped into the midst of a conversation that was already halfway through, struggling at first to get up to speed. There needed to be more world-building - I like to feel as I am actually in the scene with the characters - i.e. what is a hatchling? Also what were these past cases that affected Granger & why did everyone except Briscoe seem to dislike her? 2y

OutsmartYourShelf The ending was very abrupt & a bit of a disappointment as there was a lot of build-up & then it just....ended. I seem to be an outlier in opinions about this, so don't let me put you off. In fact, I would read another one as it has piqued my interest enough to see if some of my questions are answered in later books. 2.5ā

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Mocha Memoirs Press, for the opportunity to read an ARC. 2y
