O conceito é bom, mas estava com uma expectativa mais elevada.
Algumas questões poderiam ter sido mais exploradas em detrimento de alguns momentos um pouco mais repetitivos.

Dystopian literary fiction might be my new favourite genre. Believeably close to real life, just uncanny enough to keep me hooked.
