This was a ride!! If nothing else, a really skillful execution of exposition across the prologue and the first part of the book. But more than that I think this is a good example of gen z fiction!! The tone and the vernacular and the action itself. Imagine your world's major problem literally just being good old sexism lol. Honestly refreshing!!
