Glitches & Stitches: Death Violation 01

This is the first installment in a series, so a lot of the book is spent building up the characters and the universe.
Fawn's relationship with her work partner, Briscoe, or BB as she calls him, appears to be pretty healthy AND he doesn't get killed by the end of the book, a refreshing thing to find in a procedural that centers on a duo.
I liked that it was a fast read with queer and mental health representation and that the universe being set up looks like it's going to be visually striking (also THAT cover!). Ultimately where this book fell a little short for me is really in the fact that it didn't feel like much happened on the procedural front except intestine hostility and attempted manipulation from the seemingly shoddy coworker whose name I have already forgotten and like there should have been one or two more chapter to it and that the “evil” corporation's exposition could have been padded a little more. I expect these things will be resolved in future installment of the series so ultimately, I'll eagerly await next installment because I really like Fawn!
I received an eARC of this book through NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
