This is probably my favorite book of the year so far! Holy shit was this good! The realness of the dystopian world mixed with footnotes of actual facts on the American prison system made this hit HARD. This felt like an important read and I was completely immersed the whole time. This was the first book in a while that made me itch to pick it up and continue reading! Please read this book!!
