Genuinely the premise of “survival audition show but it’s for mecha pilots” is so specifically up my alley that it feels like this book was written for me personally!! I had a really good time with this book overall, but I am also an unabashed fan of Park Seolyeon so that didn’t surprise me.
In Project V we follow Wooram, a South Korean mech engineer and pilot, as she joins the running to be the pilot of Korea’s first ever large mecha known as V. She’s the runner up of a global robot olympiad, a talented engineering student at university, and by all metrics has what it takes to be V’s pilot… the only catch is that they only want men to audition for the role. This forces Wooram to adopt her brother Boram’s identity when she applies for the survival show, and puts her in a precarious position the further she advances. Little does she know that there’s something even more dangerous awaiting her.
