This is an amazing book that I read for Language Arts. It has a lot of important topics like Censorship, Brainwashing, what people can do with knowledge, etc. And it’s set in a world where everyone is kinda disconnected from each other and everything in general. I really love the characters and reading about their struggles. There’s so much to say about this book! 😁

I enjoyed the writing style a lot. The visual symbolism throughout was easy to paint a picture, and the way the words flowed was satisfying. But the actual message felt pretentious, considering the only two prominent women in this are a manic pixie dream girl (a teenager at that) and a ditzy housewife? No thanks.

How do you get so empty? He wondered. Who takes it out of you?
