Wasn't at all shocked to find out the author was writing a YA dystopian after this because that's exactly how it read. Idk if this is anti-art to say but this concept would work so much better as a film.

Loved part 1 but the other parts were not as interesting, very confusing, and felt like they were part of a different book. The writing also felt pretentious.
