  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Loveable characters? It's complicated

4.0

It wasn't fun reading this novel as there was a lot of torture and violence.

Yet I also couldn't put the book down because it's such a believable dystopia given the state of the USS "correction" system (a.k.a. penal-industrial complex).
