Gave me anxiety but incredibly riveting and effective
5 stars
Devoured this in two days, half because it carried me along so effectively and half because I wanted to finish it because it made me anxious. This book accomplished what I understood to be its goals with incredible precision. Some of the satire was a bit broad but it was all eminently believable, as were the characters (all a little bit relatable, all a little bit despicable). Absolutely outstanding book. I'm glad to be done with it.
