I love this book so much!!!! everyone stop making this book seem scary and inaccessible because I felt it was such a smooth interesting engaging read. I found the dialogue and language easy to follow, even if I had to take pauses to reflect or check the appendix. this book does not feel like it was written in 1965 at all.

the politics were really interesting, and I felt like it wasn't too difficult to parse and follow. such a wonderful line up of characters too, they're my little family <3

pls don't skip the prechapter quotes, they're so interesting and tell you a lot about the story and what's going to happen!!!!
