Publisher's Summary
This title contains mature themes, including sexual violence. Listener discretion is advised.
Haunted by the loss of her cousin, Delilah has curated a world of revenge—playing judge, jury and executioner while, you know, searching for love.
Maybe murdering gives her the control she craves. Maybe it fills the gaping hole that Cedar left when she disappeared. Maybe this rage is ancestral, dating back to all of the Indigenous women before her whose cases were closed without much of a search.
She’s never been close to getting caught, but as a virus ripples through the world, devolving men into animals, she gets a little sloppy. Now she must ask herself, is she a monster too, or is she simply taking her power back from the hands of men?

Story3 out of 5 stars 4
Welcome to the Grand Abeona Hotel: home of the finest food, the sweetest service, and the very best views the galaxy has to offer. All year round it moves from planet to planet, system to system, pampering guests across the furthest reaches of the milky way. The last word in sub-orbital luxury—and an absolute magnet for intrigue. Intrigues such as: Why are there love poems in the lobby inbox? How many Imperial spies are currently on board? What is the true purpose of the Problem Solver’s conference? And perhaps most pertinently—who is driving the ship?

Femininity - if only I was born a boy, life would be so much easier.
This book is one that most women will relate to in one way or another. It might make some uncomfortable to read or listen to at times. Some may not be able to read it at all.
When I listened to this story, I wasn’t only thinking about myself, but all the other females in my life from family to friends. I thought about all our experiences and stories collectively when it comes to being female. What we go through.
I think about the current state of the world and what is going on south of the border from me. The USA government having the power to make decisions about the female body is mind blowing to me no matter where you stand on certain subjects! If this is ok, then what next.
There are a lot of things in this book that make you FEEL emotions. Anger being a big one for me (don’t decide to not read it because you don’t want to read a book that makes you angry), definitely read it.
In chapter 28, around 9 mins in to the end of the chapter, the following really struck me: //…performing femininity… rather than being. Femininity was built to be a performance - entertainment for men. Always feeling like an imposter, never enough of anything… to stand on your own two feet and insist this is who I am…
Men never feeling the guilt or shame… //
Just like the intro says, everyone should read this book.
I agree. Esp men. But I doubt that will happen.

Shout in the Dark
This is a brave shout at the violence and casual disregard for the state of Women's affairs in the modern world. A mirror being held up to the male world that is not the hero driven drivel it lives on. A plague of consequences to the violence embedded in culture should terrify the patriarchy.

Blame game
This felt like a 12 hour berating lecture on the immoral sin of being born with a XY chromosome. The generalizations got old and repetitive.
