It's a replacement level book. Bad enough that I almost stopped reading it, but kept me interested just enough to persevere. I'd be more interested in seeing this as a TV show. But take my assessment with a grain of salt: I'm a Mets fan, a baseball fan, a sci-fi fan and a fan of dark reads. So if you're not any of those things, adjust your expectations accordingly.

Fun book. I really enjoyed the Kobo character. The dystopian setting feels realistic but not oppressive.
