Really interesting read, a style which at times was difficult to follow- intimidating blocks of text with few paragraphs and speech broken by commas, but was fine once you get used to it. The story was really intriguing and I enjoyed the idea, some parts felt too deeply explored but on the whole there was a good balance. I enjoyed reading most of this book, bar the scenes of SA in the middle of the novel.
