2 stars only for how good the end was - as for the rest, did I miss the part where it explained WHY ???????????????

A story so familiar and that builds in a way that hardly feels dystopian. You’re left questioning the decisions you would make if home was a place your children no longer had a future.

Things described in this book are happening to real people right now. So this book felt a little like “adversities for white people” and kept me thinking that, in order for the readers to empathise and think “it could happen to us!”, the main protagonist had be a white, highly educated, Irish woman.

A suspenseful, evocative narrative of an Ireland overtaken by extremists intent on suppressing dissent and controlling its people. The story slowly builds from a warning to outright war, with many lives affected by the Irish government’s decision.
