I rarely read books that are over 300 pages, but this book drew me in at the first sentence and kept me interested down to the last sentence of the last page! I thoroughly enjoyed the plot, and the writing style is pretty good too.

I would recommend this to those of you who like sci-fis that aren't heavy handed with technical jargon and dystopians that aren't horrendously dark/graphic.
