This is a really amazing book. It's very interesting. The characters are so deep. It's very hard to like them all. The topic is also very controversial. It's very hard hitting a lot of the time. It made me want to shout at the characters sometimes. It's very hard to understand the dynamics involved and how brain washing works. I think the author captured this beautifully. I needed to finish the book as I was dying to know what happens at the end. The ending was brilliant! I would definitely recommend this book.
