A really tense and interesting read. The ambiguity of the circumstances the characters are stuck in makes you unsure of who to root for, of who is right and who is wrong, but that makes it all the more engaging.

A very good read, I couldn’t put it down. I don’t think I was ever really rooting for any of the characters, but that’s what made it great. You kind of hate all of them, and you kind of love all of them because of the ambiguity of the conflict. But yeah, a great, fast read with some great themes and quotes me.

I really enjoyed this book. The characters are pretty developed despite the book being on the shorter side. The concept was amazing and i think that for the most part is was executed great. I know some people didn’t like the ending but because of the overall ambiguity of the book up until the ending, it felt very fitting to me. This book left me confused, empty, and slightly scared in the best way. I would absolutely recommend if you don’t mind ambiguity in your books!

i'm still confused about how i feel. through the entirety of the book, i didn't know how i felt about it; i still dont. i wanted to like this book so much. i wanted to enjoy it every time i read it, but it just left me feeling unsatisfied. i wouldn't recommend this book to people, but i'm glad i finished it.
