I do enjoy a dystopian film, but not usually a fan of the genre in book format, however I found this one an enjoyable read.

A lot of interesting characters and lots going on. I found myself very invested in some of the characters and enjoyed discovering each role the individuals and the depts played in the silo. I know there are other books in the series but I liked how this one ended and tempted just to leave the series there.
