I really enjoyed this book. I'm male, white and over 60. I thought it was beautifully written, I thought the lead character was complex, thoughtful, and unapologetic. Since I am sick to death of angst-ridden spoiled teenagers, I enjoyed Beatrice. To me it is not a derivation of Hunger games. Old fashion scifi was satirical, read ursula leguin, so is this story. I anticipate the next books with pleasure.
