Well done. :tiphat: Love your sense of humour and this review. Really enjoyed reading it.
Oh my gosh there's a hat-tip emoji?? My day is made :D

Your review was excellent! Extremely detailed and insightful. I think I'll add this book to my reading list anywat because I'm a sucker for political thrillers. I hope the suspense makes up for the lack of emotional impact. 😊

Great review. The social and political sides of the story sound really interesting. Pity about the emotional side.

Sounds like an exciting read, despite its lack of emotional appeal. Thanks for the appealing review!!
