This was an interesting concept that fell a little flat in execution.
I liked:
- Cool scarily realistic future with elements of body horror that were more mature than I expected for YA.
- Group dynamics were solid. I liked that the romantic relationship was overall pretty understated.
Didn’t like:
- Just fundamentally felt underdeveloped. It felt like it would broach topics but not dive deeper than surface level.
- It was kinda confusing? Like maybe my fault for reading when I was busy but parts of the outer world I felt like I didn’t realize until too far in.
Overall good concept but just needed more maturity/depth.
