Not to start my page on a negative review, but this book compelled me to write one. I was on board for all of the dream world worldbuilding, but couldn't get past the first chapter. The note this book starts off on, is weirdly jugdemental towards fat people. When the main character is stopped at border control because of something the dog sniffer smelled, she begins to accuse everyone arpund her of having drugs on them, pulling from such surface level stereotypes, it was hard not to cringe. Calling a house maid an "au pair" and the elitist vibe was the final nail in the coffin. Maybe the main character changes later in the books, but I seriously doubt so. Save your time and money and go read something else.
