This book was great! Very depressing reading this in 2025 in the US, though. I liked the level of detail the author wrote in and the concept was horrible, but interesting and unique. I didn't really like the ending. Seemed abrupt and unfinished. Left me with lots of questions. That's the only reason I dropped 0.5 stars.
