Very heavy, very dark, and very emotional. Dawn provides an interesting glimpse into the lives of ordinary citizens dealing with unfortunate circumstances. I nearly cried at the end of several of the short stories. The book is gripping, full of content warnings, and has an intriguing political message. It's very nicely written, but definitely not for if you're already feeling bad.

This book is heart-wrenching, emotional, and hard to read at time but it is so worth it. It’s thought provoking and forces you to have a greater awareness of what is happening outside of your life, country, and norms.
