This book did not go at all how I expected (I basically went in blind, which I'd recommend) but I was 100% along for the ride. The writing is really skillful at pulling together some pretty out there plot points and making it make sense. I think at some time the social critique that the author attempts fell flat to me, but Nella's challenges rang very true and her character felt incredibly real. Would reccomend!
