I liked this but it wasn't what I expected. I liked it because it definitely felt realistic in terms of what could happen. It's not outside of the realm of possibility that we transition to a world that looks like this.
It's different than I expected because I thought that this was going to be more of a dystopian and that the three of them would band together to take down this rich bitch CEO. The world building regarding The Inside was interesting imo, but the space ships weren't really elaborated on.
It wasn't a bad book but there's no plot? It's a lot of just narration and accounts of what's happening, which again not bad, but not that great either. It was easy to follow along to but I kept waiting for an overarching plot. I think it'd be a great limited series or movie I feel like it's everything Barbie movie was supposed to be regarding toxic femininity and reversal of sexism. It really shows human nature to perpetuate cycles and uphold systems of power and oppression. I think it'd be a great book for a book club or book discussion there's a lot to unpack here which I appreciated.
