First of all, happy new year!!!
Secondly, this book is weird. It's like...I don't know. Like 1984 plus sex. Or the vague mentionings of sex. I'm not really sure what they're talking about half the time, and I'm sincerely wondering when the actual story is going to begin to form itself. (A story that is more than showing us this bizarre world and what it's supposed to represent.)
It's very important to me that books like this have more than just a point or a moral lesson. They need to be books, stories first, and a lesson second. I'm waiting for that.
