Wool by Hugh Howey
5.0
adventurous dark emotional mysterious tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

I haven't seen the tv show. I've only seen one short clip of a character saying
they wanted to go outside / they're lying to us
.
Really enjoyed the writing style and the narration. 

Loved the feeling of tension created through
POV characters getting murdered, made you feel like anything could happen to any of the characters! Really made the 2 fake-out deaths super effective!


I also really enjoyed the inclusion of an unexpected theme
(romance)
.

The only thing I didn't love was that part of the story didn't make sense to me when I thought more about it
like I don't get why the deepdowners were so keen on immediate revolution
