god, this book is taking me forever lol

the world is really cool and self realized - but the whole lord of the flies thing is not that interesting to me, i keep putting it down and no real pull to finish it. tho i do enjoy it in the moment

i just wanna finish it and hopefully the sequels will hold my attention more

So it's pretty good. I did find that the slang and also the weird hyphened names for stuff was kinda confusing.

It's hard for me to really like... I get the inciting incident but it does feel like it comes out so strong that Eo is a revolutionary. She's political before, darrow says so, but their whole argument is like darrow has never heard it before. It was weird to me
