While this was a quick read and very interesting, I found some parts dragged a bit and seemed repetitive. Also, I found it hard to figure out the age of the person at the center of the biography. We were only really told her age up between 20-30s and then later when she’s 80.
If the “editors” of the found autobiography added plenty of footnotes throughout for clarity but it’s hard to follow along when you don’t know how old the person is. I also would’ve liked to have seen a map so I could get general idea of locations as the world lost the deceptions we use during the Great Reckoning.
Definitely recommend to sci-fi readers and anyone looking to get into the genre with a lighter dystopian.
