Totally gripping but jumps the shark as it goes on. It was a razor-sharp five stars for me at the beginning, but by the end could've been a two. Overall, I really liked it, but it left me feeling like it didn't know how to end and didn't fully do justice to any of its many ideas. It's still Kuang's best work for me, and the one context in which her too-onlineness is an asset.
