 I really enjoyed the premise for this book and all the social commentary that followed in the plot. The characters were interesting and the structure, even though the POV shifted a little bit roughly, totally worked. I binged this one in just a couple of days and I will be reading the follow up novel The Shutouts as soon as I can get my hands on it.

Not quite a 5-star due to some minor issues with plot and some unexplored explanations of some of the logic, but I still had a really good time with this concept. It was one of those situations where I got a good story, but I just wanted to know more. I wanted a bigger exploration of the "world" created. I'm hoping to get a little bit of satisfaction to that regard by reading the follow-up. Fingers crossed.

Regardless, totally worth the read and one I would consider putting on the shelf for a reread sometime soon.
