Too many characters, too many themes and not developed enough, in my opinion, don't come for me. Something didn't sit right with me and this book. It definitely covers a lot of topics, but I am not sure they are approached in the best way. It was hard to sift through a lot of it. The good people very good and the bad people were bad. It is a serious topic that was made satirical, but I am not sure all the element hit to make it really work. While it was a shorter read, it still felt long and drawn out. with so many POVs, I did not connect with any characters. I'd say read it if you want, and make your own judgement call.
