The storyline is intriguing. It is debatable if one gender is superior to the other. This book will be added to my shelf as a result of your fantastic review. Congrats on winning BOTD!

The novel speculates on the complexities of a dystopian society in which women dominate. The gender and social dynamics are intended for readers who appreciate stories about human conditions.

From this fair review I would read this book. I love sci-fi and it sounds interesting. However after reading the sample I can't like this story. I am not feeble or innocent but this book starts off in such a violent and disturbing way, I can't read it. It seems well edited and very imaginative. All aspects of the story and the characters are believably presented in a story which will interest some lovers of this genre. 4 out of 4 for a great and fair review.

This dystopian world seems very different and interesting. I would like to know what happens to the male species. I loved your review.

The author states that it is an exciting book set in the future. It tells about various characters and their different views on important issues like gender. And it might trigger the readers who are easily offended by profanity or scenes of sexual violence.

I’ll possibly skip this one. Reads perverted. Not really a fan.

A female dominated world sounds like an interesting concept. However, it also comes with its own cons and challenges which I believe is covered in the book. I'm thrilled to add this one to by TBR. Congrats on the BOTD!

Although I do not generally read dystopian novels, the premise of this book is thought-provoking. A female-dominated world where males are considered untrustworthy builds an intriguing backdrop. Thanks for the awesome review!

This plays on a kind of interesting premise. A dystopian future where women dominate men. I wonder how this will work.

Gender inequality seems to be a problem in our world. This book seems to address this serious problem. I'd love to read the book. Thanks for the review.

One, I've enjoyed your review. Secondly, I would have loved to devour the book were it not for its length. Lastly, I like the idea of women dominance in a futuristic world.

This seems like an interesting thriller set in the future. I am glad to hear that the character development is excellent, but at 700 pages it seems a bit long. Thanks for a great review and congrats to the author on BOTD!

A fictional thriller set in the future sounds intriguing. I am quite interested in the premise of a dystopian world there is a war being waged on men. The change in the power dynamic between men and women certainly makes for an exciting topic so congratulations on BOTD.
