I think this was a decent dystopian novel that set up the world for the rest of the series and definitely interested me in learning more about Kim's journey. It has a rather typical storyline of ultimate conformist realising she isn't happy with society and rebelling against the norm but I like the little details the author came up with which make the story unique. Furthermore, the author actually wrote something that reads like a critique of our current society. Reading about the harsh control and mindless citizens blindly following the rules set up by the artificial intelligence makes me scoff at the idiocy of such a society. However, upon deeper reflection, this society mirrors our own in a disturbing way, exaggerated enough to make it seem a world away, yet close enough to the truth that it hits people on a personal level. I discussed this view in more detail in my full review of this book, so do go check it out if you'd like.Melissa Jane wrote: ↑01 Dec 2022, 02:56 This is a discussion topic for the December 2022 Book of the month, "Terms of Service: Subject to change without notice" by Craig W.
