Great read
In true Dalcher style, this is an irresistible listen. I couldn’t put it down. Not as dystopian as her other books, but still gives you pause to stop and think. Definitely recommend.

Don’t waste your time or money
Slow slow boring and just too similar to author’s other books to make story interesting
