The Shutouts by Gabrielle Korn

adventurous tense medium-paced

4.0

The Shutouts is nothing short of a queer dystopian page-turner. 

This story has many plotlines woven together to make one well-rounded story. Right away, I was drawn into Kelly's story and her flashbacks. The Inside Project was also intense and interesting. 

I really liked the themes and topics about humanity and the world. I liked how the author talked about these topics in a way that's part of the world and not just an essay.

I've read Gabrielle Korn's other book, Yours for the Taking, and liked it. But The Shutouts was one I enjoyed more. I already liked her writing style but The Shutouts made me enjoy her writing style even more. I was lucky to get to take this story in by audiobook and the narrator did such a great job of delivering the drama and intense scene of the book. It's read so well. 

A thought-provoking dystopian, queer journey, told in a captivating story.
