Firstly, let’s talk about the pacing – it did alright. The story flows decently from one scene to another, and there are just a few dull moments throughout the story. Every chapter serves a purpose, fortunately, and adds to the overall story arc. The writing is on point, showcasing that the author’s can write well.
The character development is exceptionally well done. Both Mimic and its host embark on a journey of self-discovery that is expertly woven into the narrative. You’ll find yourself rooting for this odd pair as they navigate the trials and tribulations of their entwined existence, their growth and development are nothing short of captivating.

P.S. To the author – one small suggestion for the sequel. I would love to see more dialogue from the Mimic itself. The dynamic between the host and the Mimic is one of the strongest aspects of the story, and it would be great to explore their relationship further through more internal conversations. Even if it’s just the two of them bantering or debating in the host’s mind, I’m all for it!
