I absolutely adore this book and always will. I just finished it for the second time and it just amazed me all over again. It reads so quickly and draws you into this dystopian world, it‘s insanely addicting and most definitely one of my favorite books.

Minor: Fatphobia

There are several references in the book about the body revealing the “true nature” of a person, and a couple of times Guy uses this concept of feeling or being fat to indicate a distressed emotional/mental state.
