This book was November's Sapphic Book Club read by @sapphicliterature. This is now one of my favorite books. The characters are just the right combination of flawed and likable to make them extremely compelling. The worldbuilding is interesting, and while it's a deeply flawed society, the book tends towards the hopeful and determines "we can and will do better than this" rather than the grimdark "the good have no future" that some authors write. Overall it's a realistically optomistic and beautiful novel.
