It was alright yeah but wtf does goddy mean? I assume its supposed to be a censoring, to replace swearing without using replacements but it was interesting to see an invented word every other page from each and every character!

More on the actual book: Why is June so trusting of Anden? You know he can just be saying stuff, right? I can also say that I am going to quit biting my nails, never eat a sweet again, and become an ANTIFA supersoldier but that doesn't inherently mean that it's going to happen.
Of course it ended up the correct decision to leave him alive, but I still amn't sure why they're acting like Anden being a reformer is going to make a liberal utopia. I understand they've never heard of Aleksandr II but I am sure they could think of a scenario similar.
