It was entertaining, it is short of 4 stars because I sense a lot of r/menwrittingwomen and the protagonist is a bit of a pick me girl. Some scenes I found too long and pointless. The last part pf the book is the best, especially the climax. And the world building is fine, if not a bit too convenient with its many plot holes. The dialogue could use some work, when done right, it is very realistic.

pclairx's review against another edition

Racism, unnecessary descriptions of rape,  fatphobia, weird ableism, sexism, gory animal death, and Joe Hill just can not write women and refuses to stop trying. I love myself so I decided to stop before I got to far into the absolute tome of a book
