Shocked by how intricate and complex the history behind this fruit is. Something we take for granted has caused so much pain, even lead to deaths, and has been the life's work of so many and haunted so many researchers.

Bought this randomly, and it made for a nice, breezy read. Liked the overall messages, did think the endings were rapped up very hastily.

Wonderful (and scary) concept. The ending was definitely a twist I didn't see coming, although reading back there was definitely foreshadowing. The use of multiple narratives really made this book flow so well and allowed for a complex read.

It would've been interesting to have seen some glimpses of the direct aftermath of the war and how everything came into place. The reader gets a few peaks but just not enough.

Author did a great job at world building and made the characters feel very realistic.

One of the best works I've ever read! Has so many gems of knowledge that you can incorporate into your everyday life and philosophies.
