YA is not my jam, but i loved this book. It was entertaining and impactful to me. I see myself in this book as one a background character. The visceral description of the main character's experience has helped me see where I have gaps in my empathy. I'm putting Thomas's other books on my "to-read" list for the next time I take a break from my Sci-fi books.

I decided to read this one when the local school board took it out of the curriculum. Really powerful stuff.
