This book feels like if you had an alternative universe where Katniss was from District 13 and the world above was unlivable. The district system instead was vertical inside a silo that housed humanity. And you have no idea what is outside. It literally felt like a mash up of Hunger Games, Divergent and the movie Kingsman.
This book had me hooked from page one with needing to find out the mystery within and the world outside of the silo

“And yet, his feet moved. They carried him down the hidden passageway and into a room full of the strange and curious, a place that made the charting of stars seem insignificant, a den where the sense of the world’s scale, of size, took on wholly new proportions.”
“And so the descent, this spiraling downward, was much like the drowning that swallowed her at night. It felt inexorable and inextricable. Like a weight pulling her down combined with the knowledge that she’d never be able to claw her way back up.
“These would be the parts of her that rotted last, the bits left over once the rest skittered off on the wind or was drunk deep by the roots.”
