I was gifted an advanced copy of this book through net galley in exchange for an honest review
I really enjoyed the start of this book. It led with a sci fi / dystopian setting with quite strong commentary on inequity, gender, and justice. It took me a little while to understand the context and worldbuilding but was super intrigued by it and was looking forward to learning more about how the system worked.
At about 40% it felt like the book really veered off into another genre, bringing in more paranormal elements than I was expecting. Despite this I enjoyed the book and found the whole premise really intriguing. Would make a great movie
