I was hooked for the first half of the book, and then it felt very predictable after that. Maybe that was on purpose and was part of the overarching metaphor and I just don’t get it. 

Also the main character seemed to me to be on the spectrum. Many of her thought processes were quite similar to my own and others I’ve spoken to who are also autistic. Perhaps unintended representation. Either way loved the main character
