the premise of this dystopia is interesting, but some things personally failed in execution for me, particularly the random romance arc and the timeline of when their world formed from ours. but it was super enjoyable to read and think about and engage with!
Graphic: Animal death, Body shaming, Bullying, Death, Medical content, Murder, Alcohol, and Injury/Injury detail
Moderate: Toxic friendship
Minor: Eating disorder
the entire premise is that only certain features are pretty so..
