Anna works cog by cog -- donning the moniker Technician -- to supply black market medical technology to the sick and injured, against the Commissioner's tyrannical laws.<\/p>\n<p>Nathaniel Fremont, the Commissioner's son, has never had to fear the law. Determined to earn his father's respect, Nathaniel sets out to capture the Technician. But the more he learns about the outlaw, the more he questions whether his father's elusive affection is worth chasing at all.<\/p>\n<p>Their game of cat and mouse takes an abrupt turn when Eliza, a skilled assassin and spy, arrives. Her mission is to learn the Commissioner's secrets at any cost -- even if it means betraying her own heart.<\/p>\n<p>When these uneasy allies discover the most dangerous secret of all, they must work together despite their differences and put an end to a deadly epidemic -- before the Commissioner ends them first.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\t\t<script type=\"application\/ld+json\">\n{\n\t\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\n\t\"@type\":\"Review\",\n\t\"datePublished\": \"2019-12-28T11:00:44+00:00\",\n\t\"description\": \"*This is an updated post for my review of Tarnished Are The Stars by Rosiee Thor with new graphics.

Just any ace books in general are always <strong>FANTASTIC<\/strong> but I&#8217;m still <strong>SOBBING<\/strong> over how amazing this was! Rosiee\/Eliza&#8217;s explanation of everything aromantic and asexual made me cry. more than once. For some reason (please tell me if this happens to you too!), anytime I read a book with a character like me (<em>fat, ace, autistic<\/em>) I end up SOBBING if the author gets it right, because it feels so nice to just be <strong>seen<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>And now for all the reasons I loved this book <em>aside<\/em> from it being an ace book.<\/p>\n<p>I. LOVE. SCIFI! Sometimes I forget this about myself? Or, more likely, I add a bunch of amazing sounding scifi books to my TBR and then reread contemporaries and fantasies I know I love. *facepalm* This book is perfection as it expertly blends together scifi, fantasy, and mystery. I was trying to figure out what exactly was going on for most of the book, and I&#8217;m already looking forward to a reread to see if I catch some foreshadowing! I LOVED LOVED LOVED the slowburn romance between Eliza and Anna, and Nathaniel&#8217;s friendship with both of them made me laugh (&#8220;That\u2019s called friendship, Nathaniel.&#8221; is one of my favorite quotes!) as it filled me with warm fuzzies. If you&#8217;re looking for a book about found family and queer kids in space, (aka, you&#8217;ve just finished THE DISASTERS by MK England and need something to read RIGHT NOW) this is the perfect book for you! I hope you love it as much as I do!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-5446\" src=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Things-I-Wish-Were-Different-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Things-I-Wish-Were-Different-1.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Things-I-Wish-Were-Different-1-300x59.png 300w, https:\/\/www.kaitgoodwin.com\/books\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/12\/Things-I-Wish-Were-Different-1-768x150.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I WANT MORE.
