This is neither of those things.
What I got was a sadistic remix of Lord of the Flies. The morals and commentary ripped out only to be replaced with a thumping of violence, stupidity and the feeling it's saying more than it actually is.
The ending of the book is quite possibly worth the read/listen because it just veers left enough to be surprising.
This book also contains some of the STUPIDEST adults I've ever experienced in a book. Maybe the book was trying to say adults aren't that different from children when faced with horrible situations. However, this goes beyond just adults making mistakes. They were just dumb.

It's very descriptive with its violence, and *mild spoiler* there is no good outcome. It was very bleak
