Loved the shorter, alternating chapters going back in time to give us context and clues, and I felt much more invested getting to part 2. However, most of the characters' actions and motivations made no sense to me, even if we assume a suspended dystopian future and Franny's generational trauma.
I guess in the end it felt too much nature, and falling into tendencies or expectations without processing them until it was too late.
