I thought I would love this. It was sooooo repetitive!!! It was driving me completely crazy! Up until the last third of the book the same thing is being repeated over and over again. The story is pretty boring up until Part Three.
It's an interesting book because 1. it was written years ago and 2. it makes the reader think about how the gouvernement can manipulate his citizens and why it would do such a thing (power and control obviously) but still I think could have been done differently and it could have been better.
Overall, I would not recommend. I love dystopian books (I loved A brave new world) but this one was not it... for me at least.
