yellow_star's review against another edition
The little boy getting in trouble for not wanting to have child sex, as a preteen child myself at the time I read this, was deeply disturbing. I'd caution you to recommend this only to older teens (though of course if they choose to read this themselves that's another matter as smart kids will drop it if it becomes too much.)
Of course this is still unsettling to older readers, but it shouldn't be traumatizing to most people 15+. The unsettled feeling instead should make you consider government control of a population and how much is too much, and if you think a little creatively you can apply the novel to make connections of companies and governments and stalker peers spying on you and trying to control you in the modern era.Â
The book just isn't for me because I was too upset by that first reading. If you can't emotionally get through political commentary dystopia books then this probabl isn't a great fit.Â
