Interesting and original premise with multiple POV’s. Because of how many pov’s we have, the reader cannot connect with any of them since the chapters don’t say much about them other than what they do on a daily basis.
The characters lacked depth, the plot… what was the point? Is this a way of criticizing society and how we connect/interact with people? It did manage to speak a bit about the subject, but not as a way of criticism.
The book could’ve been shorter, I felt that the chapters dragged for way too long and led nowhere.
Easy read, but boring, with all due respect to the author.
