I really enjoyed a lot of this story… the world setting, the idea of life in an enclosed bubble, and the mystery question of why everyone is there.  I hated that it was a story where the main character is so good at everything she needs to do to survive, and found that implausible. I would fast forward through sections where it was obvious she would live and tension felt false.

It'll be interesting how they modify the story for Silo season 2.
