I will say some parts of this book were, grammatically, weirdly phrased to me? But that's just a nitpick. I also forgot that this was one of the first popularized YA dystopia novels, so I was laughing at the novel in the beginning as it rapid-fire made up new words this society uses which I know is a silly dystopia novel trope. Luckily, beyond the first few chapters, this aspect didn't bother me to greatly.

This is going to be a modern classic, it it isn't already.
The only and first YA dystopia that really worked as what it wanted to be.
