It’s a great book. Fascinating plot, pokes fun at society (who doesn’t want that?!), funny at points, and really thought provoking. My only issue is that there is quite a lot of filler, slowing it down a fair bit. This can make it a bit challenging, but I’d say it’s worth a read.
Graphic: Death, Gore, Suicide, and Murder
Moderate: Classism
