Solid 4.5-4.75 stars. Can’t wait to read the rest of the series.

I enjoyed this book! It has been a while since I have read any dystopian books and I really should read more of them. I liked how the book was set up with the information being gradually revealed. I unfortunately had already guessed a lot of the reveals and twists. I am not sure if I am interested enough to carry on this series but I wouldn't say a definite no.

I can tell it was originally serialized, somewhat of a repetitive writing style and more POV switches than were valuable. Thought the silo world building was pretty good. Good old fashioned earnest politics, and our Mary Sue: Jules propel the plot along.
