This book definitely made me feel autistic. Like, I understood mostly what the characters doing but sometimes their emotions definitely effected their logical thinking was jarring sometimes. 

"how dare you leave your tower, and freeze all the people in time when your forced to be stuck all alone without talking to anyone, with the person you love torn away from you.
Now I can't see the person I livewho has been taken away from me! You are so selfish.

Like, this is so jarring for me. Like, do you not see the parallel s in your situations?

But I'd assume this is how a normal person would interact. Normal people have trouble with empathy.

All in all, I enjoyed the book. 
The villain is definitely the organization. They cause all the issues. Like, man, all of this could have been avoided if the origination just had their employees read some books out load to their clocks. Tisk-tsk-tisk.
