I highly enjoyed this one. The world building here is so unique and rich, I became completely immersed in it. The book is about much more than just someone competing in a cooking show. In fact, that part takes up very little of the book. There's a lot going on here from xenophobia, to a secret underlying political agenda, new tech and the dilemma of how it may be used to change the world for better and worse, etc. I also really liked the cast of characters like Kili, and Starlight Fantastic, and I appreciate Serenity Ko's slow redemption arc in progress. Though the romance does need more build up in my opinion, I did still enjoy it and hope for more development there in the next book. Overall, this book was really interesting and entertaining to read, 4.8/5 stars.

This was like MasterChef in space and I loved every second of it! I don't feel like I need to say more, just read it. Please
