I have to admit I was really bored with this book, mostly because of the writing style, which is trying to emulate that pf a scientist's reports. As the narrative unfolds, the book gets more and more interesting. The first half is very slow but I think it's quite rewarding because of the themes explored throughout. This book is often compared to 1984, but it also reminded me of Frankenstein. I think the narratives are really similar(science, responsibility etc). Overall really enjoyed!
