I tend to read late at night; this book had a lot going on not all of which I followed. I loved the idea of pocket worlds existing within our own (with slower/faster time in some of them, leading to some interesting clashes) and economies and resource extraction which ensue as a result. I also enjoyed a different take on the horrors of colonization (book takes place in the Dominican Republic and has a lot of references to the Taino people who were the indigenous people of the region). There was a difficult relationship and a (sort of) dead child in this one which was a more fraught/raw part of the story that was challenging. Overall a really good scifi book on some tough subjects.
