2.0

It was ok. I guess I didn’t really “get it”🙃 There was this “twist” at the end that just made me go…’oh…okay.’ I think it was interesting to learn a little about how an immigration test works (kind of? It’s a dystopia but I’m sure there’s some basis on reality). Anyway, I’m probably not going to think about this story again. Maybe it reads different if I had a physical copy rather than audio but oh well
