I love the feminist direction of the story. Obviously, a lot of it hit because we are going through similar things the U.S., like for some, abortion/miscarriage=murder. There's broader commentary like women are expected to just take the pain and not have access or resources to get care. Also women being okay with being alone and wanting alone time.
Ending:
The writing is more contemporary, though there are words and sentence structure that feel reminiscent of 1984. I was so engaged and I couldn't put this book down. I am personally taking this sequel/different POV as cannon. 1984 is still one of my favorite books of all-time (I even have a tattoo) so this is a great continuation.
