Customer Reviews

Heart-rending

You know how sometimes you read a sci fi dystopia book and you think, "Hey, that looks like my house!" That was very much how I felt reading about the cameras set up in the main character's house. Reminded me far too much of things that have happened to mothers I know. This book tore me open. I wanted to kill characters in it brutally and mercilessly. This book will gut you and drive you to violence. Read it.

Water damaged but phenomenol book

I wish I could rate the physical book shipped and the quality of the book separately. This is an awesome book but I ordered the "good" quality and it came water damaged.
