A review by sr_marshrat
The Future by Naomi Alderman

adventurous hopeful medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? No
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

2.0

One part convoluted eat-the-rich story, one part naively simplistic utopia story, The Future unites its two halves with a love story and a lot of hand waving about human nature. Oh, and the most retconning I've read in a single book.
