This is one of those novels that creeps up on you. Reading the synopsis will have you wondering how all these themes will tie together, and Green does a terrific job weaving them together seamlessly. The novel offers characters you can connect with, and a story that explores identity, love, and loyalty. And how one might navigate the blurry line between state power and individual oppression. How people fall into extremism, and how dangerous ideologies can polarize individuals. The end took me by shock, but I felt it was precisely how it should’ve ended. I would recommend this novel to anyone interested in diving into a sci-fi political thriller.
