Rated We 6/10

This is probably a 7/5 for literary scholars but I have a small smooth brain and I have no idea what I just read.<br/><br/>I mean, I understand the broad strokes of the overall story, but the prose was... Experimental? I really didn't know what was going on at many points in the story.<br/><br/>Although I found the book confusing, it gets a 5/5 for ideas, philosophy, and imagination. I also laughed out loud a few times, which is rare for me, so it gets points there as well.<br/><br/>All in all, this is an amazing book if you have the time and the will to analyze every page. Or maybe think of it as a pilgrimage if you live and breathe dystopian sci-fi like 1984 or Brave New World?<br/><br/>Anyway, I can't wait to discuss this at book club, it was a great choice!
