It can be a very confusing book but it's truly not if you give it some thought. I never thought I would like a book like this.... but this book opened my eyes to a dystopian society that makes me grateful for the world we live in.

One of my favorite books ever. The way it amplifies little problems/nuances of the present world as the entirety of their world was one of my favorite parts about the foundation of the book. A lot of people find the reality to be overly extreme but I saw the extremity of the book realistic which made me emotionally connected to the environment. When reading dystopian novels I often use this book as a comparison point.

if you like dark endings and dystopians this book is perfect
