Just finished this. Short book but I am committed to reading a lot so I finished it in two days. I liked it a lot. Negative reviews highlight the slowness of it but I found those portions atmospheric. The prose is a lot like my writing so I enjoyed it for just the writing style but the story itself is the kind of serious sci fi that I love. I can't get enough of stories grounded in reality but have some wort of sci fi twist to it that makes the situation unique. That's why I loved Arrival so much. Stuff like that could potentially happen or be found in the world we live in. Anyway, it's a quick read and the first of a three book series so you guys should check it out.
It's also going to be a movie directed by Alex Garland who made Ex Machina if that interests anybody.
