The book started off really slow but I really started to enjoy it. I kind of spaced out during the video game stuff, but I otherwise it was really interesting. I really liked all the characters, and while there were some negative stereotypes, there were some that the author tried to fight. I’ve seen people say that this is a male centric view of the 80s and while I don’t know much about the 80s, I can see why people may not like that but also why it may make sense for the story. Overall I thought this was a really interesting book and dystopia.
