"The whole story has followed You creating an identity as a woman amidst an infinity of mixed signals and potential dangers, and these lines really take that to a deeper level by pointing at the fact that this is not exclusive to You."
-Xavier, Reader

"I really enjoyed this style of pathway storytelling. Roman... was intriguing and infuriating at the same time. The voice is extremely strong. Waite literally pulls us in and doesn't let us go until the very end!"
- B. Benford, Reader
